Trace metals in deep ocean waters: A review
A synthesis on the data available on the distribution of selected trace metals (i.e. Cadmium, Cobalt, Copper, Molybdenum, Nickel, Lead and Zinc) in the deep ocean from 1979 to 2009 […]
Multiple TEIs
Measuring precisely with only 40 ml of sample
It is now possible to measure precisely manganese (Mn), iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), and lead (Pb) concentrations in seawater using only 40 […]
New strategy to evaluate trace element fluxes to the ocean from aerosols
Scientists participating in GEOTRACES have developed a new strategy to evaluate trace element fluxes to the ocean from aerosols (Hsieh et al, 2011). The new approach uses the common geochemical behaviour […]
GEOTRACES in the International Polar Year
The International Polar Year (IPY) 2007-2008 provided an excellent opportunity for a flying start of the GEOTRACES program. Major IPY GEOTRACES campaigns in the Arctic region (Figure 1) were the multiyear program […]
