DOI: 10.1016/j.jsames.2020.102577
Abstract: Abstract In this paper, we investigate the characteristics of the shelf mud depocenters off South Brazil, between latitudes 27°30′S and 24°30′S. A combination of geochronological, textural (grain-size), and geochemical (metals and eNd values) analyses allowed… read more here.
