Sound knowledge about the petrophysical characteristics of a sediment core is a prerequisite for any subsequent paleoenvironmental study relying on sediment proxies. Physical...
Permeability of North Sea surface sediment was measured with falling head method on 5 cm long sediment cores sampled from various sediment samplers (Van Veen grab sampler, Shipek grab sampler, Box cor
Method A: wet-bulk volume measured with special volume sampler; method B: wet-bulk volume measured by gas pycnometry; method C: dry volume measured by gas pycnometry
