Abstract Sedimentary redox proxies are usually employed to reconstruct the paleo-redox conditions of bottom water environments, assuming that porewater and bottom water dissolved oxygen concentrations are similar. Using a combination of geochemical and magnetic techniques, we investigate the relationship between iron speciation and mineralogy in recent (~1760–2009 CE) sediments retrieved from the Santa Barbara Basin (SBB) – a modern silled basin with low-oxygen (dissolved O2
