ODINECET Journals catalogue

This catalogue gives access to the Union List of serials available at the ODINECET-Group aquatic libraries. Full records of serials published in the ECET-region, and holdings per library at the following institutions are already included:

 

  • Russian Federal Research Institute of Fishery and Oceanography/VNIRO (Russia)
  • Polar Research Institute of Marine Fisheries and Oceanography (Russia)
  • Research Institute of the Azov Sea Fisheries Problems (Russia)
  • AtlantNIRO (Russia)
  • K.A. Timiryazev Moscow Agricultural Academy (Russia)
  • Limnological Institute RAN (Russia)
  • Institute of Biology of the Southern Seas (Ukraine)
  • Marine Hydrophysical Institute (Ukraine)
  • Estonian Marine Institute of the University of Tartu (Estonia)


A priority goal is to optimize Interlibrary Lending Service within the Association through improvement of the access to detailed information on serials available at the aquatic libraries of Central and Eastern Europe. Requests for articles from this catalogue can be sent through the EURASLIC mailinglist. For this service, you have to be a member of EURASLIC, please consult these pages to learn how to become a member.

All interested aquatic libraries in the ECET-region are invited to add information about their serial holdings to the List. Go to the ODINECET-website and contact the group responsible on how to join this initiative.

Abstract
    Extensive dredging carried out in May-June 2004 in the deeper parts of the Dnepr paleo-delta area (NW Black Sea) yielded for the first time chimney-shaped carbonate microbial build-ups, which occur at methane seeps close to upper boundary of the gas-hydrate stability zone (~ 700 m). Carbonate samples taken with a benthic trawl represent fragments of the uppermost, middle and lowest parts of the build-up, which are similar to those found previously at the shallower and deeper methane seeps in the Black Sea. At the same time, the holed, plate-like carbonates in the lowest parts of the build-up provide first indications that gas channels are formed during the earliest growth phase of these microbial structures. Stable carbon isotope analyses of the carbonates from the uppermost fragments gave the d13C values ranging from -33.7 to -36.6 pro mil, while the d13C values of the lowermost fragments are significantly lighter, varying between -42.0 and -44.6 pro mil. Both these types of carbonates indicate that a major portion of the carbonate carbon originates from bacterial oxidation of the seeping methane. Oxygen isotopic values also show differences between the more irregular and porous samples from the uppermost part of the build-up, which are composed of a mixture of aragonite and Mg-calcite (d18O = 0.7 to 0.94 pro mil, and the only Mg-calcite cemented thin slabs of lowermost carbonates (d18O = 1.35 to 1.57 pro mil. The difference in d13C/d18O ratio found in the upper and lower parts of the build-up may reflect the changing of the water temperature and salinity during the chimney growth.
