Journal ArticleDOI
The silica balance in the world ocean: a reestimate.
Paul Tréguer,David M. Nelson,Aleido J. van Bennekom,David J. DeMaster,Aude Leynaert,Bernard Quéguiner +5 more
TL;DR: The net inputs of silicic acid (dissolved silica) to the world ocean have been revised to 6.1 � 2.0 teramoles of silicon per year (1 teramole = 1012 moles).
Journal ArticleDOI
The supply and accumulation of silica in the marine environment
TL;DR: For example, the accumulation of biogenic silica in estuarine deposits removes a maximum of 8 × 1014g SiO2/yr or 10% of the dissolved silica input to the oceans as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the Si cycle in the modern ocean: recent progress and missing gaps in the application of biogenic opal as a paleoproductivity proxy
Olivier Ragueneau,Paul Tréguer,Aude Leynaert,Robert F. Anderson,Mark A. Brzezinski,David J. DeMaster,Richard C. Dugdale,Jack Dymond,Gerhard Fischer,Roger Francois,Christoph Heinze,Ernst Maier-Reimer,Véronique Martin-Jézéquel,David M. Nelson,Bernard Quéguiner +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the Si cycle in the modern ocean starts with the mechanisms that control the uptake of silicic acid (Si(OH)4) by diatoms and the subsequent silicification processes, the regulatory mechanisms of which are uncoupled.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sedimentary features of the Yangtze River-derived along-shelf clinoform deposit in the East China Sea
TL;DR: A predominant sigmoidal clinoform deposit extends from the Yangtze River mouth southwards 800 kin along the Chinese coast, reaching water depths of 60 and 90 m and distances up to 100 km offshore as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sediment accumulation in a modern epicontinental-shelf setting: The Yellow Sea
TL;DR: In this paper, sediment accumulation in the Yellow Sea epicontinental-shelf environment was investigated on 100-yr and 1000-yr time scales using 210Pb and 14C geochronologies.
