The water content of lake sediments and its relationship to other physical parameters: an alpine case study
1997
Menounos, Brian
The water content of lake-sediment cores provides informative data for environmental reconstruction. In addition to its usefulness for between-core correlation, significant, nonlinear relationships between water content, organic matter and dry density measurements suggest that high resolution records of organic matter and bulk density in alpine lake sediments can be estimated indirectly. Using water content as a surrogate for bulk density and organic matter, data can be collected at much higher temporal scales than possible with current density samplers. These results lend further credence to empirical relationships between bulk density, water content and organic matter presented elsewhere.
