The monograph presented to foreign readers has been prepared by the
famous Soviet investigators of processes of geochemistry and
sedimentation in the Mediterranean Sea. For more than 20 years E.M.
Emelyanov has examined the recent sedimentation of the
Mediterranean Sea and K.M. Shimkus has studied the Quaternary and
the earlier sedi mentation of the area. The authors, scientific
workers from the P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, USSR
Academy of Sciences (Atlantic and Southern Depart ments), took part
not only in numerous cruises on oceanographic vessels of the USSR,
but in the study of cores of the deep-sea drilling on R/V "Glomar
Challenger." A great number of scientific papers and some books
devoted to the processes of sedimentation and geochemistry of the
Mediterranean Sea were written by them. Although the scientific
interests of the authors are not only limited to these questions, I
should like to emphasise these aspects of their scientific activity
when introducing this book. The Mediterranean Sea is a suitable
natural laboratory for solving a number of principal problems of
marine sedimentation and lithogenesis."
