THE NATURE AND PRESERVATION OF ORGANIC MATTER IN HOLOCENE
LACUSTRINE/DELTAIC SEDIMENTS OF LOWER MESOPOTAMIA, SE IRAQ
A. A. M. Aqrawi*
Organic-geochemical studies of sediments at the surface and in shallow boreholes in
the Tigris-Euphrates Delta of SE lraq are integrated in this paper with sedimentological
and stratigraphic studies. Limited organic preservation was found to have occurred in
surface sediments from marshland areas ("Ahwar"), although organic-rich
sediments were observed within older Holocene borehole sequences.
