Integrated Geochemical and Morphological Data Provide Insights into the Genesis of Ferromanganese Nodules
Ferromanganese nodules grow by precipitation of metals from seawater and/or sediment pore water. The formation of different genetic types depends on the composition and redox conditions of the water and upper sediment layers, water depth, and primary productivity in surface waters. Many characterist...
