Chemical Weathering in Marginal EnvironmentsConvenors: Bernhard Peucker-Ehrenbrink and Morgan JonesKeynote: Catherine Jeandel (LEGOS\, Toulouse) \nThis session aims at focusing on chemical weathering processes not taking place in the soils but in deeper aquifers\, in floodplains\, in estuaries and in marine sediments. It is of particular importance to evaluate the diversity of processes at play and their quantitative importance. Is our view of the global chemical weathering picture or global carbon cycle significantly modified when these marginal weathering environments are taken into account? \n \n*17a. The ins and outs of mud: chemical fluxes between sediments and seawaterConvenors: Silke Severmann and Rachel Mills Keynote: Ronnie N. Glud (University of Southern Denmark) \nMarine sediments are the ultimate sink for many constituents in seawater\, but this flux is significantly moderated at the seafloor before burial. Solute exchange between marine sediments and the overlying water column is occurring throughout the ocean basins. Elemental mass fluxes operate in both directions\, often with profound effects on the local or global seawater chemistry. Rates of exchange are sensitive to various internal and external forcing mechanisms that operate on seasonal to geological time scales. In the shelf seas the benthic boundary layer communicates with the surface ocean through upwelling and mixing\, thus providing a feedback between primary productivity and benthic respiration. Seafloor exchange in the deep ocean can contribute significantly in terms of the element’s global mass balance. Microbial processes are important drivers for many of these exchange processes in shallow and deep-sea sediments. \nTechnical innovations have led to improved quantification of these fluxes in the modern ocean\, while development of novel paleo-proxies provide new insight into changes in the nature and rate of benthic-pelagic exchange over longer time scales. This session invites contributions that examine the process regulating benthic exchange\, as well as techniques to quantify these fluxes on a variety of time scales. \n \n* 17b. Constraining rates of ocean processesConvenors: Laura Robinson and Matt Charette Keynote: Bill Jenkins (WHOI) \nImportant physical\, chemical\, and biological processes in the ocean occur over a wide range of timescales from seconds up to millennia. Geochemical tracers provide tools to assess the rates and timescales of these processes. For example radiocarbon\, nuclear bomb test products and long-lived U-series isotopes have been used to look at oceanic overturning circulation rates. Radiogenic thorium has been used to quantify fluxes of particles (and carbon) through the water column and to the seafloor\, and radium has been used examine the extent of lateral advection from the continents to the ocean interior. These and other traditional and novel approaches provide insight into ocean mixing and biogeochemical cycling processes central to the ocean’s interaction with the Earth system as a whole. In this session we welcome contributions that use geochemical approaches to examining the rates of oceanic processes both in the modern ocean and in the past. Invited speakers – Bob Anderson and Pieter Van Beek. \n \n*17d Isotope geochemistry of the modern oceansConvenors: Seth John \, Julie Granger\, Katharine Pahnke and Gregory F. de SouzaKeynote: Curtis Deutsch (University of Washington) \nIsotopic tracers are a powerful tool for studying the balance between physical circulation and biogeochemical processes that govern the cycling of elements within the global ocean. While the impact of the large-scale circulation on the marine distribution of radiogenic isotopes has long been recognized\, the recent increase in measurements of stable isotopes in seawater has made it also possible to observe interactions between circulation and stable isotope distributions. This session aims to bring together these two fields by encouraging contributions pertaining to stable isotope constraints on the cycling of globally important macro- and micronutrients (e.g. nitrate δ15N\, nitrate δ18O\, δ30Si\, δ56Fe\, δ114Cd)\, as well as isotopic proxies that trace ocean circulation pathways (e.g. εNd). To this end\, we explicitly solicit contributions from both the modeling and observational communities. While this session emphasizes isotopic tracers\, other data (e.g. trace elements) that elucidate the interactions between physical circulation and biogeochemical processes governing marine elemental distributions in the modern or past ocean are also welcome. \n*17g Metal-biota interactions in seawaterConvenors: Jay Cullen\, Maeve Lohan and Martha GledhillKeynote: Mak Saito (Woods Hole) \nRecent advances in analytical chemistry and molecular biological techniques indicate that trace metal micronutrients play an important role in regulating the species composition and physiological rate processes of the marine microbial community. Fully understanding the marine carbon and nitrogen cycles is thus intimately tied to our efforts to determine the distribution\, chemical speciation and resulting bioavailability of trace metals to the marine biota. New and fruitful collaborations between chemical oceanographers and microbial physiologists are being achieved through\, for example\, high spatial resolution data as obtained via the ongoing international GEOTRACES program (www.geotraces.org). We invite submissions to this session which highlight trace metal-biota interactions and the complex interlacing of geochemical\, physiological and ecological maps which shape the tempo and mode of carbon and nitrogen transformations in the ocean. \n​ URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/goldschmidt-2013/ CATEGORIES:GEOTRACES Relevant Special Sessions END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20130823 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20130903 DTSTAMP:20260405T235641 CREATED:20121130T100355Z LAST-MODIFIED:20121130T100355Z UID:1828-1377216000-1378166399@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:SOLAS Summer School DESCRIPTION:6th SOLAS Summer School 2013 Dates: 23 August – 2 September 2013Location: Xiamen\, China Deadline to apply is February 1\, 2013. \nFor further information: http://mel.xmu.edu.cn/solassummerschool/ URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/solas-summer-school/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20130819 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20130824 DTSTAMP:20260405T235641 CREATED:20130619T084530Z LAST-MODIFIED:20130619T084530Z UID:1868-1376870400-1377302399@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:PICES Summer School Ocean observing systems and ecosystem monitoring DESCRIPTION:PICES Summer School Ocean observing systems and ecosystem monitoringDates: 19-23 August 2013Location: Newport\, US \nFor further information: http://www.pices.int/ URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/pices-summer-school-ocean-observing-systems-and-ecosystem-monitoring/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20130810 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20130825 DTSTAMP:20260405T235641 CREATED:20130128T125431Z LAST-MODIFIED:20130128T125431Z UID:1834-1376092800-1377388799@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:Summer School on the Biogeochemistry of Tidal Flats DESCRIPTION:Summer School on the Biogeochemistry of Tidal Flats Dates: 10 – 24  August  2013Location: Island of Spiekeroog and at ICBM (Univ. of Oldenburg) locations in Wilhelmshaven and Oldenburg (Germany) \nSee the brochure \n For more information please see: http://www.uni-oldenburg.de/en/icbm-summerschool/ URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/summer-school-on-the-biogeochemistry-of-tidal-flats/ LOCATION:on the island of Spiekeroog and at ICBM (Univ. of Oldenburg) locations in Wilhelmshaven and Oldenburg (Germany)\, on the island of Spiekeroog and at ICBM (Univ. of Oldenburg) locations in Wilhelmshaven and Oldenburg (Germany) CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20130804 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20130810 DTSTAMP:20260405T235641 CREATED:20130402T114014Z LAST-MODIFIED:20130402T114014Z UID:1849-1375574400-1376092799@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:The 2013 Gordon Research Conference on Chemical Oceanography DESCRIPTION:The 2013 Gordon Research Conference on Chemical OceanographyDates: 4-9 August 2013Location: University of New England\, in Biddeford\, Maine\, USA \nApplication Deadline: 7 July 2013 \nFor further information: http://www.grc.org/programs.aspx?year=2013&program=chemocean URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/the-2013-gordon-research-conference-on-chemical-oceanography/ CATEGORIES:GEOTRACES Relevant Special Sessions END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20130722 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20130726 DTSTAMP:20260405T235641 CREATED:20130619T083725Z LAST-MODIFIED:20130619T083725Z UID:1867-1374451200-1374796799@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:2013 Ocean & Carbon Biogeochemistry (OCB) Summer Workshop DESCRIPTION:2013 Ocean & Carbon Biogeochemistry (OCB) Summer WorkshopDates: 22-25 July 2013Location: Woods Hole\, US \nFor further information: http://www.whoi.edu/workshops/ocbworkshop2013/ URL:https://www.geotraces.org/event/2013-ocean-carbon-biogeochemistry-ocb-summer-workshop/ CATEGORIES:Other Conferences of Interest END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20130710 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20130712 DTSTAMP:20260405T235641 CREATED:20140625T083533Z LAST-MODIFIED:20140625T083533Z UID:1911-1373414400-1373587199@www.geotraces.org SUMMARY:IOP-SIBER Joint Session DESCRIPTION:IOP-SIBER Joint SessionDates: 10-11 July 2013Location: Guangfang Hotel\, Lijiang\, China \n \nAgenda is available to download.

It includes the largest marginal sea of the world\, the South China Sea\, and some world class shelf-seas (e.g.\, the East China Sea and Northern South China Sea Shelf-sea and the Sunda Shelf). Its biogeochemistry is driven by diverse anthropogenic and natural forcings at strengths that are among the strongest in the world. They include riverine inputs from some of the major rivers of the world such as the Changjiang\, Huangho\, Pearl River and Mekong River\, atmospheric deposition with material from multiple origins (including desert dust\, volcanic aerosols\, anthropogenic aerosols\, biomass burning) at some of the highest fluxes in the world\, typhoons occurring at frequencies and strengths that are among the highest in the world\, internal waves with amplitudes that are almost unmatched in the world and one of the two primary western boundary currents in the world’s oceans. In addition\, it is also affected by global phenomena such as El Niño-Southern Oscillation\, La Niña\, ocean acidification and global warming. This joint (BG-OS-AS) session welcomes submissions of studies from broad disciplines in the biogeochemistry of the region\, including observations\, modeling\, and remote sensing efforts.

This program’s goal is “to improve the understanding of biogeochemical cycles and large-scale distribution of trace elements and their isotopes in the marine environment.” ( www.geotraces.org). To date\, 35 “GEOTRACES compliant” section and process cruises have been completed and many more are planned. For this session\, we invite investigators to share their findings from any GEOTRACES cruise including those related to dissolved and particulate trace elements\, isotopes\, nutrients and dissolved gases as well as atmospheric analyses. We also welcome presentations describing intercalibration\, data management and modeling efforts related to GEOTRACES process and section studies. \n**SS08: Biogeochemistry of Metal-binding Organic Ligands in the Ocean: Sources\, Composition and Impacts on Trace Metal CyclingConveners: Maeve C. Lohan\, University of Plymouth; Sylvia G. Sander\, University of Otago; Kristen N. Buck\, Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences \nThe bioactive trace metals iron\, copper\, cobalt\, nickel\, zinc and cadmium are essential micronutrients for marine phytoplankton and exert a major influence on the global carbon cycle. Complexation of these metals by organic ligands may enhance or reduce bioavailability depending upon the metal-ligand complex formed. Yet we know little about the composition\, sources and cycling of metal-binding ligands\, which is hindering further advances in the field of trace metal biogeochemistry. An active SCOR Working Group (WG 139) ‘Organic Ligands- A Key Control on Trace Metal Cycling in the Ocean’ fosters the multidisciplinary collaboration of trace metal biogeochemists\, organic geochemists and biogeochemical modelers in order to advance this field. This session is a community wide forum to highlight recent accomplishments in metal-binding ligand characterization and approaches for assessing ligand composition\, sources and impacts on trace metal cycling in the aquatic environment\, and to discuss future efforts in this field. We welcome abstracts related to metal-binding ligands from throughout the multidisciplinary field of oceanography.
