| We have constructed a nonsteady state numerical model of organic carbon, aluminum, and uranium burial to examine the dynamic response of sediments to variations on thousand years scale. The three components are defined by distinct behaviors in the sedimentary system. The aluminum is a conservative component, the organic carbon is a nonconservative component degraded in superficial sediment, and the uranium is a component affected by redox conditions. By introducing a simultaneous variation of incoming fluxes of C-org and Al, geochemical profiles of Al, Corg, and U clearly show separate distributions after burial. Each component record the synchronous variation of the incoming fluxes, but the position in the sedimentary pile of the recording differs from a... |

| The Balearic Basin is a young basin composed of thick Plio-Quaternary sediments, including active gravity sedimentation. During the Quaternary, gravity processes deposited (1) turbidite systems, either as symmetrical fans (Petit-Rhone and Valencia fans) or asymmetrical ridges (Marseille-Planier, Grand- Rhone and Pyreneo-Languedocian ridges) and (2) several mass-transport deposits, indicating recurrent sedimentary failures of the margin. This paper synthesizes previous works and proposes a chronological sedimentary evolution for the basin. Except for the last 20 ka, the chronostratigraphy remains poorly constrained but should soon be established for the last 500 ka, based on the PROMESS1 drillings on the outer shelf of the Gulf of Lions, and hopefully for... |
