. Collected reprints / Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratories [and] Pacific Oceanographic Laboratories. Oceanography is based on the extrapolation of density and sediment type observations from the South China Sea and from off Cahfornia. The highest densities observed are those east of Greenland where values as high as g/cm^ are reported. This unique area of relatively high densities can be most likely correlated with an influx of heavy minerals from Greenland and Vestspitsbergen. This has not been verified by heavy mineral analyses of the sediments. 120°. WET

Based on the measured water content, bulk density and grain specific gravity values, the void ratio, e, (the ratio of the volume of the voids to the volume of the solids) can be calculated. Porosity, n, is then simply determined using the relationship 100 e Porosity of submarine sediments is found to range from 40 to 90 per cent, but 44.
