NGR - /JOIDES Resolution/

Download Quantified K, U, and Th Contents of Marine Sediments and Rocks

On this page, you can access the quantified concentrations of potassium (K), uranium (U), and thorium (Th) in marine sediments and rocks, collected by the RV /JOIDES Resolution/ between 2009 and 2024. These data were derived from the natural gamma radiation (NGR) spectra recorded onboard, processed through a deconvolution algorithm using a MATLAB script as detailed in De Vleeschouwer et al. (2017).

More recent Expedition data will be made available after their respective moratorium periods.
