Preservation of organic matter in marine sediments by inner-sphere interactions with reactive iron
Abstract Interactions between organic matter and mineral matrices are critical to the preservation of soil and sediment organic matter. In addition to clay minerals, Fe(III) oxides particles have recently been shown to be responsible for the protection and burial of a large fraction of sedimentary o...
