The geochemistry of global mantle melts suggests that both mid-ocean ridge basalts
(MORB) and ocean island basalts (OIB) sample lithological and temperature heterogeneities …

The transition from mafic to felsic upper continental crust (UCC) is crucial to habitability of
Earth, and may be related to the onset of plate tectonics. Thus, defining when this crustal …

Weathering is a key process controlling V transport from the continental crust to the
hydrosphere. To understand V behavior during chemical weathering, we investigated the …

Vanadium, a potentially toxic metal, is enriched in the environment from anthropogenic
releases, particularly during fossil fuel production and use and steel manufacturing. Metal …

Variations of V isotope ratios (δ 51 V) in sedimentary rocks have been proposed as a
potential proxy for paleo-oceanic redox conditions, although the marine δ 51 V system is not …

Vanadium (V) can have toxic effects on human organs and physiological systems, yet
tracing V sources remains challenging. Here, two methods were used for V source tracing in …

The constraint of Sn isotope composition of the Earth's mantle is the prerequisite for
understanding planet formation with Sn isotopes and Sn isotope fractionation in terrestrial …

Isotopic measurements of lunar and terrestrial rocks have revealed that, unlike any other
body in the solar system, the Moon is indistinguishable from the Earth for nearly every …

The speciation, burial, and isotopic composition of vanadium (V) in seawater is predicted to
be closely coupled to the redox state of the oceans. While the speciation and burial terms …

It has been hypothesized that vanadium (V) isotopes have the potential to track sedimentary
redox conditions due to multiple valence states occurring in nature, which might induce …
