POLLEN AND ORGANIC RESIDUE (FTIR) ANALYSIS OF SAMPLES FROM SITES GA426 AND HI178, TEXAS GULF COAST (2010)
DOCUMENT
Full-Text
Three core samples recovered from two underwater sites (GA426 and HI178) on the outer continental shelf off the Texas coast in the Gulf of Mexico were submitted for pollen and organic residue analysis. Two of the samples were examined for organic residues using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and two were examined for pollen. Pollen and organic residue analysis will be used to determine if the core samples represent sites on land or deposition of floral remains blown to sea.
