Chemical weathering is an integral part of both the rock and carbon cycles and is being
affected by changes in land use, particularly as a result of agricultural practices such as …

The silicon isotope composition of biogenic silica (δ 30 Si BSi) in the ocean is a function of
the δ 30 Si of the available dissolved Si (DSi; H 2 SiO 4), the degree of utilisation of the …

When rock is converted to weathering products, the involved processes can be fingerprinted
using the stable isotope ratios of metals (for example Li, Mg, Ca, Fe, Sr) and metalloids (B …

Knowledge of the weathering processes controlling continental transfer of dissolved silicon
(DSi) to the ocean is fundamental to the estimate of the long-term atmospheric CO2-budget …

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 …

In contrast to many other stable isotopes of the elements discussed in this book, those of
silicon are not strictly speaking “Non-Traditional Stable Isotopes” because they have been …

Geological reservoir δ30Si values have increasingly been applied as paleoclimate and
paleoproductivity proxies. Many of these applications rely on the assumption that the surface …

Abstract 2009∼ 2010 was a critical period for the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) transition
from staged impoundment to full operation. This study reports on the composition of nutrients …

We report a dataset of phytoplankton in the Congo River, acquired along a 1700‐km stretch
in the mainstem during high water (HW, December 2013) and falling water (FW, June 2014) …

Silicon (Si) stable isotopes have the potential to become a useful weathering proxy, given
that light Si isotopes are preferentially incorporated into secondary clay minerals. Here we …
