Journal ArticleDOI

Nanominerals, Mineral Nanoparticles, and Earth Systems

TL;DR: This work has established that variations in surface and near-surface atomic structure as a function of size in this smallest of size regimes may make a difference in important geochemical and biogeochemical reactions and kinetics in minerals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Southern Ocean Iron Enrichment Experiment: Carbon Cycling in High- and Low-Si Waters

TL;DR: Two mesoscale experiments, designed to investigate the effects of iron enrichment in regions with high and low concentrations of silicic acid, were performed in the Southern Ocean, demonstrating iron's pivotal role in controlling carbon uptake and regulating atmospheric partial pressure of carbon dioxide.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Trace Metal Composition of Marine Phytoplankton

TL;DR: There are notable differences between taxa and regions that inform the understanding of ocean metal biogeochemistry, and differences in the quotas estimated by the various techniques also provide information on metal behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

- 20 Aug 2018 - 
TL;DR: The GEOTRACES Intermediate Data Product 2017 (IDP2017) as discussed by the authors is the second publicly available data product of the international GEOTrACES programme, and contains data measured and quality controlled before the end of 2016.
Journal ArticleDOI

Free-drifting icebergs : Hot spots of chemical and biological enrichment in the weddell sea

TL;DR: It is suggested that free-drifting icebergs can substantially affect the pelagic ecosystem of the Southern Ocean and can serve as areas of enhanced production and sequestration of organic carbon to the deep sea.
