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.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2020.111087
Abstract: Trace metals, dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane (DDTs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were quantified in surface sediments from mud depocenters located in the western South Atlantic upper continental margin. There was no anthropogenic trace metal… read more here.
