Interaction of sinking behaviour of Saharan dust and lithogenic and biogenic fluxes in the Canary Basin

Saharan dust events are currently the predominant source of lithogenic particles in the Canary Basin. In order to quantify this input and its relationship with the biogenic fluxes, a sediment trap was deployed in a free-drifting system at 150 m depth, 50 km off the north coast of Gran Canaria (Canar...
