Abstract

Material of continental origin constitutes a considerable fraction of the organic matter in the sediments investigated. The contribution of terrigenous material varied with time with high levels corresponding with turbidites. It appears that organic matter transported from the continent by turbidity flows was subjected to a kind of physico-chemical fractionation during which it was enriched in spore and pollen material. This means that the dispersed organic matter is predominantly lipoid. - from Authors
