Quantifying fluxes of trace elements and their isotopes (TEIs) at the ocean's sediment–water
boundary is a pre-eminent challenge to understand their role in the present, past and future …

Actinides are elements that are often feared because of their radioactive nature and
potentially devastating consequences to humans and the environment if not managed …

The short-lived radium isotopes, 223Ra (T1/2= 11.4 days) and 224Ra (T1/2= 3.66 days),
have been successfully used as tracers of several environmental processes, eg, submarine …

Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) to the coastal environment along the eastern
Yucatan Peninsula, Quintana Roo, Mexico was investigated using a combination of tracer …

Abstract The Indonesian Mixing program (INDOMIX) was designed to quantify the very
strong mixing that transforms Pacific waters into isohaline Indonesian Waters in the …

Five sediment cores were collected along a cruise tract from Hawaii to Alaska in August
2017 (C-Disk-IV cruise) with the objective of characterizing the behavior of 227 Ac, 228 Ra …

The contribution of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) to oceanic metal budgets is
only beginning to be explored. Here, we demonstrate that biogeochemical processes in a …

Hydrothermal vents have been shown to be important vectors for various chemical elements
into the ocean. However, both the intensity of the chemical fluxes associated with these …

Radium isotopes, other than 226 Ra, and 227 Ac are typically present at low activities in the
open ocean. The analysis of these isotopes thus requires the collection of large volumes of …

The transpolar drift is strongly enriched in 228Ra accumulated on the wide Arctic shelves
with subsequent rapid offshore transport. We present new data of Polarstern expeditions to …
