Redox-sensitive trace metals have been used extensively as geochemical proxies to infer
the redox-status of marine sediments at the time of their deposition, and by extension, the …

Vanadium is a metal that receives increasing attention due to its possible toxicity and its
increased use in society, ie in high-grade steel and in vanadium redox-flow batteries …

Recent studies suggest that pelagic sediments can enrich rare-earth elements (REE) acting
as a significant reservoir for the global REE budget as well as a potential resource for future …

Because of anthropogenic global warming, the world ocean is currently losing oxygen. This
trend called ocean deoxygenation is particularly pronounced in low-latitude upwelling …

Phytoplankton productivity and export sequester climatically significant quantities of

Vanadium (V) is a redox-sensitive trace metal that typically exists in one of three oxidation
states (+ 3,+ 4 and+ 5) in natural waters; a feature increasingly used in paleoredox studies of …

The quantification of dissolved metals in seawater requires pre-treatment before the
measurement can be done, posing a risk of contamination, and requiring a time-consuming …

Understanding the origin and evolution of life on Earth and potentially other planets in our
solar system is of fundamental interest for humanity. For the longest time in Earth's history …

Molybdenum (Mo) concentrations and isotope compositions in sediments and shales are
commonly used as proxies for anoxic and sulfidic (ie, euxinic) conditions in the water column …

Vanadium, like many trace metals, is persistent and detrimental to ecosystems at elevated
concentrations. Likewise, it is versatile, functional, and used in many industries. Jiaozhou …
