Description
The effect of oxygen on the degradation of sedimentary organic matter has been determined for 6 subtidal stations and 3 intertidal stations in the North Sea area. The stations were selected to cover a range of organic matter lability and sediment texture (and hence concentrations of organic matter).

Themes:
Biology > Organic (& bio-) chemistry, Biology > Pigments (e.g. chlorophyll)
