Particulate organic carbon and mineral export from the North and South Atlantic gyres : the 234Th/238U disequilibrium approach.

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 228-270). === Subtropical ocean gyres are typically characterised by low carbon export into the deep ocean. However, due to their large area, even relatively small average carbon export may be globally significant. Strong correlations observed between deep...
