Black Sea, Sea of Azov

Inorganic chemical composition of sediment or rocks; Concentration of organic matter in sediments; Carbon concentrations in sediment; Lithology; Mineralogical composition

Unconsolidated sediment corers; sediment grabs

Source material includes data of nine geological routes of research vessels. 12 maps of the Black Sea and 6 maps of the Sea of Azov (scale 1:1500000) show sites location, lithological types and element concentration (Fe, Pb, Cu, Zn, Cr, Ni, Co, Ph) in bottom sediments.
