Assessment of Density Variations of Marine Sediments with Ocean and Sediment Depths

Figure 8

Errors of a uniform density distribution model. Scatter plot and histogram of the differences between the measured densities and the average sediment density of 1.70 g/cm3. Statistics of the differences: standard deviation = 0.29 g/cm3, max = 0.90 g/cm3, and min = −0.75 g/cm3. The histogram shows the relative distribution of density differences.
