Particulate Trace Metal Fluxes in the Western Arabian Sea and Their Links to Marine Productivity

Creator:

Flannery, Kelly M.

Abstract:

Many trace elements (e.g., Zn, Cd, Mo) are essential phytoplankton micronutrients, making them crucial to the marine ecosystem and ultimately the carbon cycle. Because of this association trace metals are also utilized in paleoceanographic studies (e.g., Mo, Cd). However, not much is known about what controls the cycling of these...

A 37,000-year record of paleomagnetic and environmental magnetic variability from Burial Lake, Arctic Alaska

Creator:

Dorfman, Jason Michael

Abstract:

Burial Lake sediments from the Noatak Basin in the northwest Brooks Range of Arctic Alaska (68.43°N, 159.17°W, 21.5 m water depth) provide the oldest continuous lacustrine record of paleo-environmental change and paleomagnetic secular variation (PSV) in eastern Beringia. A precise radiocarbon chronology, determined through accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) allows us...
