Dr. Madhavaraju Jayagopal (Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico\, Mexico). Dr. Shuh-Ji Kao (Academia Sinica\, Taiwan ). \nSession Description \nEarth System Scientists and Marine Geochemists are interested in reconstructing the past environmental and oceanographic changes over the orbital to millennial timescales by using solid-phase geochemical proxies. Geochemical proxy data for paleoenvironmental and paleoceanographic changes could have large uncertainties\, and thus this decade has witnessed the invention of several new proxies\, catalyzing a renaissance of sediment geochemical research especially from South and East Asian regions. This session focuses on the advances made in using elemental and isotopic proxies for the past environmental and oceanographic changes in the low- and mid-latitude regions. We welcome contributions related to the critical evaluation of climate-environmental-specific proxies in modern and ancient terrestrial\, lacustrine and oceanic environmental settings. \n  \nSession 2 DetailsSectionIWG – Interdisciplinary Working Groups Session Title: Weathering Studies in Asia: Geochemical and Clay Mineralogical Constraints from Modern and Ancient Sediments \nMain Convener(s): Dr. Nagender Nath Bejugam (National Institute of Oceanography\, India). \nCo-convener(s): Dr. Selvaraj Kandasamy (Academia Sinica\, Taiwan). Dr. Madhavaraju Jayagopal (Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico\, Mexico). \nSession Description \nThe Earth’s Critical Zone and associated terrestrial life is governing by two interdependent surface processes\, namely erosion and weathering. A combination of atmospheric carbon dioxide levels and continental weathering intensity controls the Earth’s climate on glacial-interglacial timescales. Recent chemical weathering investigations from East Asia \, although only a few\, reveal a wide range of chemical weathering conditions that were not previously known. Given the importance of diverse climatic and tectonic regimes in Asia \, this session explores the recent advances in chemical weathering using geochemical and clay mineralogical studies of river\, lake and ocean sediments\, including sedimentary rocks. Chemical weathering studies from oceanic islands\, in-land lake systems and comparison between large and small river systems in Asia are most welcome. This session further evaluates the unexplored potential geographical regions for future investigations.

With the launch of the international GEOTRACES program and the rapid development of molecular techniques\, now is an opportune time to strengthen linkages between the geochemists and biologists who focus on trace metals and metalloproteins in the ocean. For this session\, we invite presentations on geochemical\, physiological\, biochemical and modeling studies that address the complex interactions between trace micronutrients and marine microbiota on scales ranging from global to molecular. \n*Town Hall Meeting: Microbial Biogeography and Biogeochemistry   \nConveners:  Eric Webb\, University of Southern California and Ben Van Mooy\, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. \n An Ocean Carbon and Biogeochemistry (OCB) Scoping Workshop chaired by Jim Moffett and Eric Webb (University of Southern California) was held in Los Angeles in November 2010 entitled “The Molecular Biology of Biogeochemistry.” The goal of this workshop was to assess the potential role of molecular biology to study marine biogeochemical cycles\, particularly the carbon cycle\, via large survey programs such as GEOTRACES.  Rapid advances in molecular methods are providing new tools applicable to global surveys and other observational programs focused on the oceans’ response to changing climate and other impacts.   However\, molecular biologists generally examine ecological problems like community diversity\, whereas geochemists are more interested in functionality and rates.  Here\, geochemists and molecular biologists sought common ground to identify which molecular biological measurements would be most useful for understanding marine biogeochemical cycles and characterizing their response to climate change. \n Workshop participants were enthusiastic about the integration of geochemical and marine biological tools in existing large survey programs but recognized the need for a new\, stand-alone field campaign to characterize the biogeography of marine microbial communities that will complement the existing global survey and observational programs.  The new program will characterize the distribution of microbial communities within the ocean on complete surface to bottom sections and couple these data with important geochemical measurements and rate measurements of key processes.    Such a program was seen as essential to achieve the core science objectives in biogeochemistry that was the charge of the workshop.  A stand-alone program is desirable for logistical and science reasons\, but the core parameters in GEOTRACES are highly complementary.  Therefore\, a plan was outlined for a sectional survey cruise in Fall 2013 concurrently or back to back with a proposed GEOTRACES zonal section in the eastern tropical South Pacific.  The effort will be spearheaded by participants at the workshop\, and led by Ginger Armbrust (University of Washington).  However\, planning of the program is still at a very early stage\, and input from the broader community of marine microbiologists\, biogeochemists and modelers is essential.  \n The following objectives were developed as an organizational framework for the development of the hypotheses and approaches for the first sectional cruise and the program as a whole: \n (1)    Characterize and define the connections between the presence and activity of microbes (i.e.\, functional biogeography) and physical and chemical parameters\, utilizing the tools of an unprecedented\, large group of microbiologists and geochemists. (2)    Utilize genomics\, transcriptomics\, proteomics\, and metabolomics in combination with process measurements to define biogeochemical ‘connections’ and their constraints. (3)    Integrate results from multiple sections to identify boundaries of microbial biogeographic provinces (analogous to the Longhurst provinces) over horizontal and vertical scales.\n(4)    Develop an operational framework for many laboratories to collaborate together using a variety of molecular and biogeochemical  tools that includes rigorous protocols for methodological inter-calibration and standardization (5)    Incorporate the program’s observations into a new generation of models that capture the connections between microbes and chemistry in an ocean perturbed by climate change.  \n At the Town Hall Meeting\, these plans will be discussed along with a detailed summary of the meeting deliberations about the topics in points 1-5.

Diverse anthropogenic and natural forcings coexist and interact in the biogeochemical cycling of TEIs in these waters. However\, their key regulating processes remain largely to be explored. In this workshop\, potential key processes that regulate and control the biogeochemical cycles of TEIs\, such as their sources\, distributions\, internal cycling\, sinks\, and their use as tracers or proxies\, will be identified and discussed. These discusses will culminate in the formation of a future action plan in TEI research in the region. Contributors are invited to present highlights of their recent relevant findings and provide comments and suggestions on the future action and cruise plan.

About 10% of the global river run-off is delivered to the Arctic Ocean and about 30% of the world’s soil carbon is estimated to be stored in northern ecosystems within the Arctic catchment area. Effects due to a warming climate may have profound impact on the Arctic resulting in increased export of organic carbon and sediments to the Arctic Ocean. Arctic shelves constitute about 25% of the World Ocean shelf area and are among the shallowest in the world acting as an important regulator of the river export of organic carbon and TEIs to the central Arctic Ocean. \nThis interest has already led to several discussions and deliberations\, including a GEOTRACES planning meeting held in Delmenhorst Germany in June 2009 which recognized the need for international collaboration to make future GEOTRACES efforts viable in this region. \nIn order to focus these discussions and to generate an action plan for future GEOTRACES activities between US investigators and international collaborators\, a US Arctic GEOTRACES Planning Workshop will take place from Sept 29 to Oct 1\, 2010 in Washington DC. \nAgenda \nThe Agenda of the meeting is available to download. \nList of participants \nThe List of Participants is available to download. \nOther Information \nAnnouncement.

Moreover several trace elements and isotopes serve as key tracers for unraveling processes and turnover rates in the oceans. The international GEOTRACES program pursues the characterization of marine biogeochemical cycles of Trace Elements and Isotopes (TEIs; stable or radioactive; natural or anthropogenic). In context of the International Polar Years (IPY) 2007-2009 the GEOTRACES program had its flying start with four Arctic and six Antarctic expeditions in order to study TEIs abundances\, processes and fluxes in the polar oceans. The multi-tracer approaches and inter-calibration exercises carried out during IPY-GEOTRACES have produced novel relationships among TEIs and other tracers and improved methods for sampling and analyses. We seek topics on TEIs as controling elements as well as tracers of biogeochemical processes in the polar oceans in the context of IPY-GEOTRACES and other relevant projects. \n*C009: Getting the Right Number: Precision and Accuracy in Chemical Oceanography \nConvener: Gregory Cutter\, Old Dominion University and Robert Sherrell\, Rutgers University. \nAccuracy and precision are essential for all biogeochemical studies. Some important chemical species are in extremely low concentration while others require high precision for optimal interpretation. Intercalibration is an active process among laboratories that includes all steps from sampling to analyses\, with the goal of achieving the same accurate results regardless of the method or lab. Past intercalibration efforts included examinations of colloids and carbonate system parameters\, and more recently the Sampling and Analysis of Iron (SAFe) experiment. The GEOTRACES intercalibration program is currently underway. This session seeks presentations focusing on methods to assess the accuracy and precision of determining various chemical parameters in the ocean (from organics to metals to isotopes in dissolved and particulate phases) and results from intercalibration programs. An important goal will be for attendees to discuss how best to assess accuracy from sampling to analysis when suitable certified reference materials are not available. \n  URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/2010-ocean-science-meeting/ CATEGORIES:GEOTRACES Relevant Special Sessions END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20100308T080000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20100310T080000 DTSTAMP:20260503T134311 CREATED:20110608T112212Z LAST-MODIFIED:20110608T112212Z UID:1735-1268035200-1268208000@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:Final GEOTRACES Intercalibration Workshop DESCRIPTION:Final GEOTRACES Intercalibration WorkshopDates: 8-10 March 2010Location: Old Dominion University\, Norfolk\, Virginia USA \nOverview \n  \nThe two primary tasks at this workshop will be: (1) to compare and interpret all the dissolved and particulate TEI data to document how well we’ve achieved our goal of getting the most precise and accurate data possible (including sampling methods\, handling\, storage\, and analyses); (2) to produce the users’s manuals/cookbooks for sampling and sample handling to be used for all future GEOTRACES cruises (with variations for the actual sampling systems themselves; we can only prepare those for the US system in particular\, but other groups have or will be using the same one).  \nAgenda \nThe Agenda is available to download. \nParticipants List \nDownload the participants list. \nOther Information \nAnnouncement of the meeting.

OverviewThe objective of the workshop is to foster the collaboration between data producers and modellers from the GEOTRACES program. It will provide an opportunity to discuss on the requirements and limits of forward and inverse methods for improving our understanding on the cycle of trace elements and their isotopes\, as well as the data products necessary to better constrain the models. Particular interest will be reserved on the assessment of nutrients fluxes (macro and micro)\, the understanding of particle reactive proxies (e.g. Pb\, Nd\, Pa/Th)\, and measurement and modelling of particles concentration and fluxes in the water column (particle types\, size spectrum\, processes: agregation/disaggregation\, sinking velocity\, remineralization).

An important aspect of the workshop is to identify nations that are prepared to take the lead in carrying out specific cruises as elements of the broader basin-scale plan. Individuals who are prepared to organize research cruises and to secure funding to support those cruises are particularly encouraged to participate. \nWorkshops focusing on the Atlantic\, Pacific and Indian basins were held in 2007. By then the international polar year (IPY) had started already and several expeditions with GEOTRACES programs were already underway. It was therefore decided to organize a similar workshop for the polar oceans after the completion of the IPY. We now plan to hold an Arctic GEOTRACES Workshop in Bremen in June 2009. The emphasis of this workshop will be on the planning of Arctic expeditions\, but ideas on future expeditions in the Southern Ocean can also be discussed. \nThis workshop will produce a set of recommendations that will be used by the GEOTRACES Scientific Steering Committee\, in conjunction with other input\, to develop a coherent global plan for the GEOTRACES program. \nAgenda \nThe Agenda of the meeting is available to download. \nVenue \nThe meeting will be held at the Hanse Wissenschaftskolleg (HWK).

We anticipate this will be 2/3 of the meeting time. The remaining 1/3 will be planning Cruise 2 in the North Pacific. So\, everyone needs to plan on getting as many analyses as possible completed before the workshop\, ideally by November so that you can discuss the results amongst your colleagues measuring the same suite of dissolved and/or particulate TEIs. We can only accommodate 45 participants at the workshop\, with the elemental coordinators having the most priority (they have to attend)\, and perhaps 2-3 others that are in their group (e.g.\, the nutrient group should have Karen Casciotti\, Albert Colman\, and Mark Brzezinski at the meeting); the remaining spots would be for coordinators on the 2nd Cruise who did not participate on Cruise 1. The plan would be for each elemental coordinator to present the overall results to date (maybe 20-30 minutes covering the Intercalibration results and the vertical profiles) and then the entire workshop would discuss the results\, in particular looking for trends\, etc that match their own. At the end\, we’ll spend time synthesizing all of the results – what worked and what didn’t. This would then lead into Cruise 2 planning\, with additional topics to be included (e.g.\, speciation\, sample storage\, etc). \nVenue \nThe meeting will be held at the Larkspur Hotel Union Square\, 524 Sutter Street | San Francisco\, California 94102.www.larkspurhotelunionsquare.com \nOther information \nAnnouncement of the Workshop. \n  URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/2nd-geotraces-intercalibration-workshop/ CATEGORIES:GEOTRACES Scientific Workshops END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20081106 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20081109 DTSTAMP:20260503T134311 CREATED:20110728T110122Z LAST-MODIFIED:20110728T110122Z UID:1740-1225929600-1226188799@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:2008 GEOTRACES Scientific Steering Committee meeting DESCRIPTION:2008 GEOTRACES SSC MeetingDates: 6-8 November 2008Location:  Toyama\, Japan URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/2008-geotraces-scientific-steering-committee-meeting/ CATEGORIES:GEOTRACES Meetings END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20081001 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20081004 DTSTAMP:20260503T134311 CREATED:20100504T130950Z LAST-MODIFIED:20100504T130950Z UID:1639-1222819200-1223078399@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:U.S. GEOTRACES Pacific Section Implementation Workshop DESCRIPTION:U.S. GEOTRACES Pacific Section Implementation WorkshopDates: 1 – 3  October 2008Location: University of Southern California\, Los Angeles\, California\, USA \nFor further information: http://www.usgeotraces.com/html/pacific.html  \nThe Report of the Workshop is available to download. \nOverview \nThe US GEOTRACES Scientific Steering Committee (SSC) is beginning to develop implementation plans for the initial sections in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans\, and invites community involvement  in the process. Workshops will be held this fall to draft implementation plans for these sections:Atlantic 22 – 24 September\, 2008; WHOIPacific 1 – 3 October\, 2008; University of Southern California \nIn preparation for these workshops\, the SSC solicits recommendations as well as expressions of interest from individuals who wish to participate in the development of the implementation plans. \nThe implementation plans will be reviewed by the SSC and by NSF program officers. Once approved\, the plans will serve as the basis for proposals to NSF to support research on each section. \nDownload the full announcement. \nObjectives \nThere are two important objectives of the Pacific Basin Workshop.  \nThe highest priority is to develop a plan for a meridional section from Hawaii to the Gulf of Alaska that could become the first GEOTRACES cruise in the event that an Ocean Class ship is not available in the North Atlantic for us in 2010. \nSecondly\, we must design a feasible plan for two sections in the Pacific.  One is the meridional section described above\, while the other is a zonal section (approximately) from the Peru coastline to the East Pacific Rise\, followed by an WNW transect along the axis of the 3 He plume. We will examine the feasibility and logistics of conducting these sections as a coordinated effort in 2013.  As an alternative\, we will consider staging these sections separately in 2012 and 2014. \nThe meeting will enable us to evaluate what we can and cannot accomplish in these sections\, especially regions where we will encounter strong concentration gradients in core parameters over small distances.  What sampling intensity is realistic over these gradients? What sampling might be best left for a process study? \nA principal consideration of our logistical planning will be full and meaningful integration of the trace element and isotope parameters\, leading to complimentary data sets that will fulfill the core missions of the program.  Progress made on the intercomparison cruise will be an important part of the planning process. \nConvenors \nJames Moffet and Chris German. \nAgenda \nThe Agenda of the Workshop is available to download. \nParticipants List \nThe Participants List is available to download. \nOther information \nPlease\, visit the Workshop web site.
