Iron phosphate sedimentation in a meromictic kettle lake: A Holocene record of geochemistry and paleoenvironment in Teapot Lake, Southern Ontario

High iron phosphate mineralization in sediments (>3 m with 15 to 20% vivianite) and the water column (up to 6 ppm PO4 and 9 ppm Fe) of Teapot Lake, a meromictic kettle lake in Brampton, Ontario, was investigated to understand the origins of such remarkable phosphorus enrichment. The lake is surro...
