Simple Summary Our aim is to introduce the mineral nutrition of fish and explain the
complexity of determining requirements for these elements, which are absorbed and …

Trace elements are actively cycled in seawater, are essential components for marine life,
and are transported to the seafloor where they can become enriched in marine sediments …

This book helps readers understand the fundamental principles and phenomena that control
the transfer of trace elements. It describes the occurrence and behavior of trace elements in …

This paper is a synthesis of the use of selected trace elements as proxies for reconstruction
of paleoproductivity and paleoredox conditions. Many of the trace elements considered here …

“The Answer to the Great Question... Of Life, the Universe and Everything... Is... Forty-two,”
said Deep Thought, with infinite majesty and calm…“I checked it very thoroughly,” said the …

Organic carbon-rich sediments are enriched in several redox-sensitive and stable sulfide-
forming trace metals (TM) and form an important sink in global TM cycles. In today's ocean …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the elemental proxies for palaeoclimatic and
palaeoceanographic variability in marine sediments. Physical and biological processes …

Shales and mudrocks are enriched with diverse suites of major elements and trace metals
that reflect their depositional environment, provenance and diagenesis. Here we present …

Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

We measured solid-phase Mo and U concentrations in marine sediments from the
California, Mexico, Peru, and Chile margins to ascertain the behavior of Mo and U during …
