Manganese and color cycles in Arctic Ocean sediments constrain Pleistocene chronology

Sequential variations in manganese (Mn) content and color of deep-sea sediments retrieved from the Lomonosov Ridge (87°N) in the central Arctic Ocean apparently mimic low-latitude δ18O glacial-interglacial cyclicity, thereby providing stratigraphic information that together with biostratigraphic dat...
