The results of measurements of major ions in sediment porewaters collected by in situ filtration. Values are presented as the difference in the concentration between bottom water and porewater samples. Stations are from the continental margin and deep sea in the South Atlantic (A) on the mid-Atlantic Ridge between Rio de Janeiro and Capetown at c.2000 m (B) from the continental rise off Rio de Janeiro at 2000 m (C) from the continental slope off Rio de Janeiro at c. 1000 m and (D) from the Venezuela Basin east of Barbados at c.3000 m. Note that the concentrations of both K" " and Mg + decrease with depth in almost all cases. From Sa/les, (1979).
