Fe-speciation data show pronounced water column redox stratification during deposition of the Kuibis Subgroup5. Marine transgression during deposition of the Mara, Kliphoek and lower Omkyk members resulted in basin-wide shoaling of the redoxcline, represented by dominantly anoxic ferruginous deeper and shallower (above fair weather wave base) waters (Fig. 2b,c)5,6. The data then show more frequent development […] More

Site descriptions, soil and litter layer sampling and analyses All of the forest sites were located in the Northern region of French Guiana and span various geological substrates (Fig. 1). Soils are mainly classified as Oxisols, Ultisols and Spodosols. Mean annual precipitation ranges from approximately 2,400–4,000 mm yr−1 (Table 1). We created the map in Fig. 1 using ArcGIS, Version […] More
