Quantitative Chemical Mass Transfer in Coastal Sediments During Early Diagenesis: Effects of Biological Transport, Mineralogy, and Fabric Phase 3

Abstract

Our long term goals are to provide a better quantitative and mechanistic understanding of chemical processes that occur in fine-grained coastal and continental margin marine sediments, especially with regard to how these processes affect biogeochemical fluxes and the transport and/or retention of environmentally sensitive natural and anthropogenically generated chemical compounds in coastal environments.
