Global compilation of benthic data sets I

Approaches to quantify the organic carbon accumulation on a global scale generally do not consider the small-scale variability of sedimentary and oceanographic boundary conditions along continental margins. In this study, we present a new approach to regionalize the total organic carbon (TOC) content in surface sediments (<5 cm sediment depth). It is based on a compilation of more than 5500 single measurements from various sources. Global TOC distribution was determined by the application of a combined qualitative and quantitative-geostatistical method. Overall, 33 benthic TOC-based provinces were defined and used to process the global distribution pattern of the TOC content in surface sediments in a 1°x1° grid resolution. Regional dependencies of data points within each single province are expressed by modeled semi-variograms. Measured and estimated TOC values show good correlation, emphasizing the reasonable applicability of the method. The accumulation of organic carbon in marine surface sediments is a key parameter in the control of mineralization processes and the material exchange between the sediment and the ocean water. Our approach will help to improve global budgets of nutrient and carbon cycles.

Enfermedades y muerte de Charles Darwin

Charles Darwin nació en Shrewsbury, Inglaterra, el 12 de febrero de 1809. Tuvo excelente salud, hasta su regreso, en 1836, del viaje alrededor del mundo con el Beagle. A partir de ese momento comenzó a manifestar cefaleas, palpitaciones, temblores, caries y paradentosis, catarros respiratorios, artritis, forúnculos, puntos negros en la visión, mareos, dolores abdominales, náuseas, vómitos, flatulencias, insomnio, accesos de furia, depresión y períodos de extremo agotamiento. Más allá de mejorías temporarias, estos síntomas se manifestaron durante los últimos 45 años de su vida, a pesar de lo cual pudo encontrar la entereza suficiente como para publicar 14 libros, entre ellos el genial El origen de las especies. Los diagnósticos más probables puestos a consideración por los distintos investigadores fueron un trastorno bipolar asociado a una herencia psicopatológica y la enfermedad de Chagas, que este ilustre personaje pudo haber contraído en Sudamérica. Finalmente, el 19 de abril de 1882, Darwin falleció muy probablemente a consecuencia de una patología vascular coronaria y cerebral. Sus restos se encuentran en la abadía de Westminster, junto a los de Isaac Newton.
