Notes: "The 23 contributions of this special issue cover a broad field of sedimentation of particles, from methodology over general flux data and microfossil assemblages in the surface ocean to geochemical and isotopic composition of carbonates, organic matter and opal as well as degradation processes at the sediment-water-interface.  The results improve our knowledge of the global marine carbon cycle and of the use of proxies for paleoceanographic reconstructions.  The investigations are part of the Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS) and Past Global Changes (PAGES)." -- P. [1679].
