The marine geochemistry of iron and iron isotopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
This thesis addressed questions about the Fe cycle by measuring detailed profiles and transects of Fe species in the ocean and also by exploring the use of a new tracer of Fe, Fe isotopic fractionation. In the subtropical and tropical Atlantic Ocean, transects and profiles are presented for dissolved Fe ([less than]0.4 m), soluble Fe ([less than]0.02 ...

Enrichment of 54Fe by Electromagnetic Isotope Separator (EMIS) [PDF]

open access: yesمجله علوم و فنون هسته‌ای, 2014
Electromagnetic Isotopes Separator (EMIS) has been installed in Karaj since 1991 in order to separate isotopes of a wide range of elements. Iron is successfully separated. Iron element has four stable isotopes, 58Fe, 57Fe, 56Fe and 54Fe.

Quantifying Lithogenic Inputs to the Southern Ocean Using Long-Lived Thorium Isotopes

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Thorium (Th) isotopes were applied to quantify the supply of lithogenic inputs from the Kerguelen Plateau to the Southern Ocean. The dissolved concentrations of 232Th and 230Th were measured following a novel pre-concentration method using the Nobias ...

Uniquely low stable iron isotopic signatures in deep marine sediments caused by Rayleigh distillation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Dissimilatory iron reduction (DIR) is suggested to be one of the earliest forms of microbial respiration. It plays an important role in the biogeochemical cycling of iron in modern and ancient sediments.

Iron isotope anomalies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1989
Precise determinations of the Fe isotope abundances yield identical results for a terrestrial standard and for samples of carbonaceous meteorites. Fe-54/Fe-56 = 0.062669; Fe-57/Fe-56 = 0.023261 + or - 0.000002; and Fe-58/Fe-56 = 0.0031132 + or - 0.0000011 are found.

Recycled iron fuels new production in the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
In the eastern equatorial Pacific, upwelling supplies nitrate in excess of iron relative to phytoplankton requirements. Here, using nitrate isotopes, the authors show that iron recycling in surface waters supports nitrate consumption, lowering surface ...

Iron Composition of a Typical Loess-Paleosol Sequence in Northeast China

open access: yesAgronomy
Iron isotope compositions, along with the partial extraction of iron in its various forms, can be utilized to investigate the complex interplay of iron migration and transformation with respect to iron isotope patterns.

Distinct iron cycling in a Southern Ocean eddy

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Eddies are common ocean features that isolate large swaths of seawater, but it is unclear how they influence productivity of phytoplankton trapped inside.

Use of Ra isotopes to deduce rapid transfer of sediment-derived inputs off Kerguelen [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2015
The Southern Ocean is known to be the largest high-nutrient, low-chlorophyll (HNLC) region of the global ocean due to iron limitation. However, a large phytoplankton bloom develops annually downstream of the Kerguelen Islands, a bloom which is sustained ...

Iron incorporation and post-malaria anaemia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Iron supplementation is employed to treat post-malarial anaemia in environments where iron deficiency is common. Malaria induces an intense inflammatory reaction that stalls reticulo-endothelial macrophagal iron recycling from haemolysed red blood cells ...
