Manganese: a surprising co-limiting factor of phytoplankton growth in the Southern Ocean
One of the main consequences of this work is that manganese should be included in ocean-climate models, more particularly to improve the accuracy of their predictions in this area.

Spatial and temporal variability of bioactive trace metals, speciation and organic metal-binding ligands in the eastern Gulf of Mexico
Mellett and Buck present the concentrations of bioactive trace metals (Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn, Co, Ni, Cd, and Pb), Fe-and Cu-binding organic ligands, and electroactive Fe-binding humic substances in the eastern Gulf of Mexico.

Dissolved iron and manganese fates reveal processes along the hydrothermal TAG plume
Authors performed high-spatial resolution analyses of dissolved iron and manganese samples collected at the Mid Atlantic Ridge

The biogeochemical ventures of dissolved iron and manganese across the Arctic Ocean
The spatial distributions and biogeochemical cycling of dissolved Fe (dFe) and dissolved manganese (dMn) across the Arctic Ocean were established during summer and fall 2015. The Canadian GEOTRACES transect extended […]

About the decoupled fates of aluminium, manganese, cobalt and lead in the North Pacific Ocean
Did you know that each of these tracers could follow its own marine story, quite decoupled from the others? This is what is shown and discussed by Zheng and co-workers […]

Manganese in the west Atlantic Ocean in the context of the first global ocean circulation model of manganese
Marco van Hulten and co-workers (2017, see reference below) ran a global ocean model to understand manganese (Mn), a biologically essential element. The model shows that: (i) in the deep […]

What controls hydrothermal plume transport of iron over 4000 km in the deep Pacific Ocean?
The striking extension of the dissolved iron and manganese plumes over more than 4000 km from their hydrothermal sources along the US GEOTRACES East Pacific Zonal Transect (EPZT) cruise (GP16) has […]

Unprecedented set of dissolved manganese data in the North Atlantic Ocean (US GEOTRACES cruise)
Manganese (Mn) is an essential nutrient for biological growth. In the ocean, manganese distribution is sensitive to several processes: redox conditions, photochemistry, biological activity, abiotic scavenging, and also eolian, hydrothermal […]
