Abstract

In this article, a univariate regression analysis of Fe, Mn, Mn/Fe and Corg distributions and marine sediment densities by depth in sections of studied boreholes drilled on the Vøring Plateau was used to investigate the intensity of diagenetic transformations. As a result, quantitative parameters of diagenesis processes in Eocene-Pleistocene sediments were obtained. In addition, the degree of intensity of diagenesis processes for the main lithological sediment types of the Vøring Plateau was studied on the basis of single-factor analysis of variance data. As a result, it was found that in addition to hiatuses, the effects of bottom currents and turbidites, the degree of diagenetic transformation in Eocene-Pleistocene sediments depended on the following main factors: sediment accumulation conditions; lithological composition; the amount of organic carbon included in the Eocene-Pleistocene sediments of the Vøring Plateau.
