Surface sediments were taken at all geological stations <strong>with</strong> <strong>the</strong> giant box corer (50 x<br />

50 x 60 cm). <strong>The</strong> sediments were photographed and described (Appendix 2).<br />

Sediment colors were identified according to <strong>the</strong> “Munsell Soil Color Chart”; we<br />

recovered 12 sediment layers based on colour, consistence, texture, structure, grain<br />

size composition (a correlation scheme of sediment layers is presented in Fig. C4-2):<br />

1) Dark olive sandy mud <strong>with</strong> gravel and dropstones;<br />

1a) Dark olive gray sandy mud;<br />

1b) Olive gray sandy mud;<br />

1c) Olive brown sandy mud;<br />

2) Dark olive gray sand (oxidation);<br />

3) Olive sandy silt (bioturbation);<br />

4) Olive silty clay;<br />

4a) Olive silty clay <strong>with</strong> black points of hydrotroilite (bioturbated);<br />

4b) Dark olive gray silty clay;<br />

4c) Olive brown silty clay laminated (oxidation);<br />

5) Dark olive clay.<br />
