Trace Elements in Total Atmospheric Deposition Directly Measured Over the Caribbean Region: Natural Versus Anthropogenic Sources and Geographic Origin

Abstract Dust, sea salt, and anthropogenic and biogenic particles in total atmospheric deposition are sources of essential elements that can significantly impact biogeochemical cycles in the Atlantic Ocean and in islands of the Caribbean region. This unique 41‐month data set reco...

Iron Isotopes Reveal Fe Export Driven by Change of Tropical Weathering Regime

Abstract Unraveling paleoenvironmental signals recorded in laterites is crucial for quantifying weathering‐driven elemental fluxes at the Earth's surface. New stable iron isotope data (δ 56 Fe), combined with (U‐Th)/He ages in Fe‐oxides from a ferruginous duricrust from French Gu...

Planktonic foraminifera iodine ∕ calcium ratio: is it a proxy for dissolved oxygen in the ocean?

Abstract. Direct observations indicate a declining trend in ocean oxygen concentrations, which is not quantitatively captured by models. The complexity of oxygenation variability, linked to both physical and biochemical parameters, must be investigated across different modern cli...
