The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (sedimentation rate, sed rate, or ESR for short) is a commonly performed hematology test that may indicate and monitor an increase in inflammatory activity within the body caused by one or more conditions such as autoimmune disease, infections, or tumors. The ESR is not specific for any single …
To ensure that the comparison between the 137 Cs-derived and 210 Pb-derived average sedimentation rates was conducted over the same time scale, the averages of 210 Pb-derived sedimentation rate used the mass depth divided by time at the depth over which the average was desired. 2.3. Statistical treatment
Sedimentation Rates Determined Using 226Ra in Barite Sedimentation rates of 3.6 cm/kyr at the equator and 2.7 cm/kyr at 2°N are derived from the slope of the logarithm of 226Ra (dpm/gm) in barite versus depth below the bioturbation zone (Fig. 3, empty symbols). These are maximum sedimen- tation rates because most likely a larger …

Using the constant rate of supply model (CRS), the temporal variation of sedimentation rates over the last 100 years in Bohai Bay was determined, and its main factors influencing sedimentation ...
The average modern sedimentation rate was 0.05 cm yr −1. Average sedimentation observed during historic accretion was 0.22 cm yr −1, about 4.4 times greater than the modern rate of accretion. Reduction in sediment accretion can be attributed to upstream levees completed in 1934 and loss of organic accumulation …
The corresponding sedimentation rates of the upper layer since the 1950s are 1.85, 3.73, and 3.37 cm/yr in the three cores, respectively (Fig. 4). Comparing the sedimentation rates derived from 210 Pb ex, it is significantly lower in core YZE and slightly higher in core CDZS20 (Fig. 4).

Geomorphology, 119 (2010), pp. 88-96.
This fact should be taken into consideration since the data obtained to predict benthic impacts derived from sedimentation rates could underestimate fish farm impact. Fourth, fish farming modified the benthos not only in a physico-chemical and biological way, but also functionally, lowering the number of trophic groups and the evenness among them.
The mean 210 Pb-derived sedimentation rate found in Soledad Lagoon (1.54 ± 0.218 mm year −1) is in agreement with the sedimentation rates reported by Jennerjahn and Ittekkot and references within, for coastal waterbodies fringed by …
Profiles of 210 Pb, 137 Cs and 239,240 Pu in core OR499-16 showing good agreement between the derived sedimentation rates. The horizontal dashed line mark the mixed layer depth, while the hatched lines on the Pu and 137 Cs plots represent the time horizon circa 1963 deduced from 210 Pb-based sedimentation rate.
In the case of core XI7-TS1a, the derived sedimentation rate from the MMB model was a factor of 2 higher than the neighboring and shallower core XI5-TS1 (12.8 cm kyr −1 and 6.8 cm kyr −1; respectively); both cores are located at different depths (2417 m in XI7-TS1a and 1355 m in XI5-TS1) on the relatively high gradient slopes of Perdido ...
The 210Pb-derived sediment and mass accumulation rates were 1.54±0.18 mm year-1 and 0.08±0.01 gem-2 year-1, respectively. The sediment core did not provide evidence of human impact, such as enhancement of primary production or nutrient enrichment, which may result from recent land uses changes or climate change. The Corg fluxes estimated
However, the errors of estimated sedimentation rate vary among reservoirs due to different accuracy of satellite-derived bathymetry. The derived bathymetry has a mean percent bias of 4.08%, with lowest in Lake Gibson (0.31%) and highest in Lake Sumner (15.66%) (Figure 3 ).
Thorium sedimentation rates compared with sedimentation rates derived from independent stratigraphies in the same or adjacent core. Dotted line is the 1:1 line. Solid black line is the linear best fit of the data, and the gray area depicts 1 standard deviation. The two datapoints >2 cm/kyr were excluded from the linear fit.
The combined analysis of sub-categories "measurement methods" and "recent sedimentation rate trends" (Fig. 7) showed that 11 out of 14 articles indicated an increase in sedimentation rate used core chronology, whereas the studies that found sedimentation rate decline (13 articles in total) employed mainly bathymetry (6 articles) …
The normal sedimentation rate (Westergren method) for males is 0-15 millimeters per hour, for females, it is 0-20 millimeters per hour. The sedimentation rate can be slightly elevated in the elderly. Falsely low sedimentation rates can occur in the blood of people with leukemia or polycythemia rubra vera.
Sedimentation rates derived from different models were validated using historical data including lake area, arable land area, sediment discharge and reservoir volume in the Yangtze basin. The SCP-corrected CRS (constant rate of supply) model performs better than other models, based on validation using historical documents in the …
For example, average sedimentation rates based on total sediment volume accumulated over the Holocene in Alaskan fjords range from 45 to 900 cm yr −1 (ref. 29), compared to the typical modern ...
Overview. Sed rate, or erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), is a blood test that can show inflammatory activity in the body. Many health problems can cause a sed rate test result to be outside the standard range. A sed rate test is often used with other tests to help your health care team diagnose or check the progress of an inflammatory disease.
sedimentation rates derived from both the laminae counts and the c.r.s. calculations. In each case, depressed concentrations correspond with independently verified peak sedimentation
Ocean 540: Marine Sedimentation. --Marine Geological Processes--Winter Quarter 2001. Marine Sedimentation. Marine sediments are the products of a limited number of physical, biological, and chemical processes. The nature of the resultant sediments is determined by the relative rates of input of material supplied by these …
In Fig. 2 and Table 1, the sedimentation rates for the different sediment cores are compared with values derived from the literature that utilized 210 Pb xs. As is evident from this comparison, sedimentation rates derived from 210 Pb xs are generally considerably higher than those derived from 14 C. Both estimates, however, decrease …
As is evident from this comparison, sedimentation rates derived from 210Pbxs are generally considerably higher than those derived from 14C. Both estimates, however, decrease as a function of depth. A comparison of 210Pbxs- and 14C-based sedimentation rates thus indicates a significant discrepancy between the two estimates.
CIC- vs CF-derived sedimentation rates: 2002 coresThe CIC model gave an average sedimentation rate of 0.6 ± 0.1 cm/yr for core I. The top 7 cm layers of this core can either be a mixed layer or a high sedimentation rate region. The depression in 210 Pb activity of the top layer can also be due to dilution with sediments with no excess 210 Pb.
