Domain-specific¶
- Bioturbation
- The geochemical and ecological consequences of bioturbation at the sediment-water interface include: accelerated decomposition of organic matter and nutrient regeneration from sediment to the water column; ventilation of otherwise anoxic sediments, suppressing sulfide accumulation and altering sulfur and iron cycling; and destruction of primary sedimentary layering in the mixed layer, which sets a fundamental limit on the time resolution achievable in paleoclimate and paleoenvironmental records from sediment cores — the bioturbation depth defines the minimum temporal averaging imposed on any proxy signal preserved in the sediment
This sourceBerger and Heath's paper on vertical mixing in pelagic sediments, which models particles as mixed uniformly to a depth m at a rate much faster than sedimentation.

“Vertical mixing in sed iments can be quantitatively described if it is assumed that: (i) upon deposition, detrital particles are mixed uniformly to a depth, m, below the sediment-water interface at a rate that is much faster than the sedimentation rate”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
