Dehydration and stabilization of unconsolidated laminated lake sediments using gypsum for the preparation of thin sections

An improved Lamoureux method for subsampling of unconsolidated laminated sediment is described. Here, we describe a new methodological approach that changes the Lamoureux method in four steps of which the most important change concerns dehydration and stabilization. In this step, we adopted gypsum e...
