The Rb Sr isotope systematics of bedrock, soil digests, and the cation exchange fraction of soils from a granitic glacial soil chronosequence in the Wind River Mountains, Wyoming …
Soil nutrients such as Ca, Mg, and K are traditionally thought to be derived primarily from rock weathering. Here we show that sea spray is a significant source of nutrient elements to …

Eolian dust constitutes much of the pedogenic material in late Pleistocene and Holocene soils of many arid regions of the world. Comparison of the compositions and influx rates of …
Abstract 87Sr/86Sr evidence from a soil chronosequence in the Hawaiian Islands demonstrates that the atmosphere supplies> 85% of putatively rock-derived Sr in older sites …
Alpine lakes receive a large fraction of their nutrients from atmospheric sources and are consequently sensitive to variations in both the amount and chemistry of atmospheric …
