In 2017, researchers took a 45-centimeter-long sediment core from the center of Lake Cuopu, where the water was 14 meters deep. They then divided the core into 41 one-centimeter samples for analysis.

Such samples contain organic matter that can be analyzed to learn about a region's past climate. The new study was based on data from a sediment core extracted from the bottom of Sikuiui Lake in ...

Sediment cores are samples taken from the bottom of a lake that preserve the depositional sequence. Spanbauer and Stegner considered samples taken as early as the late Pleistocene – around ...

Between May 10 and June 10, 2017, sediment and soil cores were collected from Lake Hazen. The core samples were paired between these two environments for contrasting sediment and soil sites when ...

This is exactly what Montana State University researchers found in June 2018, when they collected a core from Goose Lake, the largest lake in Lower Geyser Basin, that contained sediment deposited ...

The Southeastern Louisiana University scientist who discovered alarming levels of toxic chemicals in Lake Maurepas was ...

New research published Friday offers hope that Perseverance Rover's Mars sediment samples could reveal traces of life - if it ever existed on Mars. The rover has already confirmed an ancient lake ...

Large surface waves produced by powerboats are a mainstay for recreational watersports. A new study from the University of ...

During one inspection, a Durham County erosion control supervisor found 68 problems with the development’s erosion and sediment control measures.
