Chemical weathering of the volcanic soils of Isla Santa Cruz (Galápagos Islands, Ecuador) [PDF]

, 2014
We present a study on weathering of volcanic soils using 43 profiles (131 horizons) sampled in Santa Cruz Island (Galapagos Islands). Several weathering indices, based on chemical composition, are used. Since the geological material is highly homogeneous

Spatiotemporal variability in the O-18-salinity relationship of seawater across the tropical Pacific Ocean [PDF]

, 2017
The relationship between salinity and the stable oxygen isotope ratio of seawater (δ18Osw) is of utmost importance to the quantitative reconstruction of past changes in salinity from δ18O values of marine carbonates. This relationship is often considered
