Land-Ocean Systems in the Siberian Arctic: Dynamics and History
Acknowledgements
We express our special thanks to the shipboard parties for collecting the surface sediments
during cruise Transdrift I and II. We are further grateful to M. Kunz-Pirrung for sharing her
processed samples with us and to P. Overduin for revising the final text. M. Matthiessen and
M. Saarnisto are thanked for their helpful review comments.
