Abstract
⺠N. Chukchi Sea sediments covering 9000 yr of the Holocene period were analyzed. ⺠Organic biomarkers indicate marine sources as the dominant input of organic matter. ⺠Lower but continual contributions from terrestrial sources were also determined. ⺠There was remarkable consistency among multiple molecular organic markers down-core. ⺠The consistency suggests influence by bottom currents and mixing before deposition.
