In the marine environment oxygen and hydrogen isotope compositions of pore waters may be inherited from ocean water or inflnenced by diagenetic reactions in the sediment or nnderlying basement. Knowledge of the chemical composition of sedimentary pore waters has increased considerably since the beginning of the Deep-Sea-Drilling-Project. From numerous drill sites, similar depth-dependent trends in the isotopic composition have been observed.

The Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP), currently the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) of the National Science Foundation, has undertaken the most systematic evaluation of ocean hydrate deposits. The DSDP has recovered hydrate cores in the deep oceans from both coasts of the United States, from the Mid-America Trench off Guatemala, and off the coast of Peru. Atotal of 23 oceanic hydrate cores have been recovered, including the Gulf of Mexico and three Soviet...

Gas chromatography - mass spectrometry data of the "aromatic hydrocarbon" fractions of nearly 100 Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) and Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) sediment samples have been re-examined for the occurrence of organic sulfur compounds (OSC). Approximately 70% of the samples contain OSC with varying distribution patterns, although isoprenoid thiophenes are invariably present. 

Samples were made available by the support of the Deep Sea Drilling Project and the Ocean Drilling Program. This overview work was supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), grant No. We 346/27, while the original data collection have been financially supported by the DFG with grant Nos. We 346/21, We 346/23, We 346/24 and We 346/25.
