Creator:

Chen, Ying, Paytan, Adina, Chase, Zanna, Measures, Christopher, Beck, Aaron J., Sañudo-Wilhelmy, Sergio A., and Post, Anton F.

Abstract:

We present the first comprehensive investigation of the concentrations, fluxes and sources of aerosol trace elements over the Gulf of Aqaba. We found that the mean atmospheric concentrations of crustally derived elements such as Al, Fe and Mn (1081, 683, and 16.7 ng m¯³) are about 2–3 times higher than...

Input and cycling of iron in the Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea

Creator:

Chase, Zanna, Paytan, Adina, Johnson, Kenneth S., Street, Joseph, and Chen, Ying

Abstract:

The Gulf of Aqaba, northern Red Sea, is an ideal natural laboratory for studying the impact of atmospheric dry deposition of iron to the ocean surface. We have measured atmospheric iron deposition weekly for 18 months, and dissolved and total dissolvable iron concentrations in the stratified summer (August) and well-mixed...
