Pulsed nutrient fluxes from intact sediment cores which were artificially resuspended under experimental conditions. All cores were from soft sediments areas of the central North Sea. Values are for immediate releases into the overlying water. Mud Hole and Botney Cut cores are from areas undisturbed by trawling. The Botney Cut Impacted cores were from an area which is regularly beam trawled. Bars represent ranges, boxes are standard deviations and points are medians.
