Figure 23. Comparison of organic matter C/N ratios and TOC concentrations of sediments from Hole 1086A. The correspondence between increases in both parameters indicates that preservation of marine organic matter during early diagenesis is important to the TOC contents of sediments on the Namibia margin.
