Science Highlights

Zinc and lead isotopes reveal human footprint on the most remote oceanic regions

Benaltabet and co-workers analysed suspended particles collected on GEOTRACES GP21 cruise tracked from Chile to New Caledonia.

Organic binding site heterogeneity controls amorphous ferric oxy-hydroxides oceanic sink

In oxygenated seawater iron binds to hydroxide ions, which results in authigenic Fe precipitation as amorphous ferric oxy-hydroxide…
