Explore the fascinating phenomenon of whitings and lime mud production in this 1-hour 11-minute lecture from Seds Online. Delve into the decades-long debate surrounding the triggers of whitings, focusing on the Great Bahama Bank as a case study. Examine the occurrence of fine-grained carbonate in various aquatic environments, from freshwater to marine conditions, and their prevalence throughout geological history. Learn how hydrodynamic simulations and geochemical modeling are used to investigate the diverse mechanisms behind the lime mud factory. Gain insights into the implications of these findings for interpreting whitings mud in the geological record, including the analysis of geochemical signatures. Enhance your understanding of ocean chemistry, hydrodynamics, and their role in shaping carbonate sediment production in modern and ancient environments.
