Geological and oceanographic constrains on the deposit of ferromanganese nodules on the archipelagic aprons of seamounts

This study used datasets such as depth, backscatter intensity (BI), and optical coverage in conjunction with mineralogical, element geochemical, Sr-Nd-Pb isotopic, and chronological analyses of the nodules of the Suda Guyot (SG), which was located on the central area of the Marcus-Wake seamounts, northwestern Pacific Ocean.

本研究采用水深、后向散射强度（backscatter intensity, BI）与光学覆盖度等数据集，并结合针对位于西北太平洋马库斯-威克海山群（Marcus-Wake seamounts）中部区域的苏达海山（Suda Guyot, SG）结核开展的矿物学、元素地球化学、Sr-Nd-Pb同位素及年代学分析。
