Summary
Abstract: Sediment Recruitment Experiment 4 (SRE4) was a large, long term (5 year) field experiment run at Casey Station (from 2001 to 2006) testing the effects of 4 different hydrocarbons on marine sediment ecosystems. Four different types of hydrocarbons were individually mixed with defaunated marine sediments and deployed in trays on the seabed at O'Brien Bay-1. Trays were collected after deployment ...

Purpose: To determine the effects of hydrocarbons on marine sediment ecosystems in Antarctica.

This record contains sediment chemistry data for various aspects of the SRE4 experiment, including grain size analysis (SRE4_SedimentGrainSize), TOC, Nitrogen and Phosphorus (SRE4_SedimentTOC/Nitrogen/Phosphorus) and metal concentrations in sediments from O'Brien Bay (SRE4_O'BrienBaySedimentMetals), where the hydrocarbon spiked sediment trays were deployed.
