Silicon (Si) is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust and is an important
nutrient in the ocean. The global Si cycle plays a critical role in regulating primary …

This paper provides an overview of stable isotope analysis (H, C, N, O, Si) of the macro-and
microscopic remains from aquatic organisms found in lake sediment records and their …

Lake Baikal, lying in a rift zone in southeastern Siberia, is the world's oldest, deepest, and
most voluminous lake that began to form over 30 million years ago. Cited as the “most …

In this study we present, for the first time, profiles of germanium and its species (inorganic,
monomethyl and dimethyl germanium) in a lake: Lake Geneva (Switzerland/France). The …

Glacial environments play an important role in high-latitude marine nutrient cycling,
potentially contributing significant fluxes of silicon (Si) to the polar oceans, either as …

Climate models currently provide conflicting predictions of future climate change across
Central Asia. With concern over the potential for a change in water availability to impact …

Silicon (Si) is an essential macronutrient for diatoms, an important component of lacustrine
primary productivity that represents a link between the carbon and silicon cycles …

The use of silicon isotope ratios (expressed as δ 30 Si) as a paleolimnological proxy in
lacustrine systems requires a better understanding of the role of lake processes in setting …

Authigenic phases in lake sediments hold the potential to record changes in the isotope
compositions of past lake water, potentially yielding valuable information on secular …

Riverine dissolved silicon (DSi) and biogenic silica (BSi) are modulated along the estuarine
gradient by several biotic and abiotic processes governed by physical forcings. An important …
