A key Earth system science question is the role of atmospheric deposition in supplying vital
nutrients to the phytoplankton that form the base of marine food webs. Industrial and …

Metal dissolution from atmospheric aerosol deposition to the oceans is important in
enhancing and inhibiting phytoplankton growth rates and modifying plankton community …

Atmospheric deposition is a source of potentially bioavailable iron (Fe) and thus can partially
control biological productivity in large parts of the ocean. However, the explanation of …

It has long been hypothesized that acids formed from anthropogenic pollutants and natural
emissions dissolve iron (Fe) in airborne particles, enhancing the supply of bioavailable Fe to …

Mineral dust plays a pivotal role in the Earth's system. Dust modulates the global energy
budget directly via its interactions with radiation and indirectly via its influence on cloud and …

Sea spray aerosol (SSA) is the largest natural source of aerosols in the troposphere, and
has profound potential significance for climate change, visibility, and human health. It has …

Aerosols supply bioaccessible iron to marine biota which could affect climate through
biogeochemical feedbacks. This paper review progresses in research on pyrogenic aerosol …

Iron can be a growth‐limiting nutrient for phytoplankton, modifying rates of net primary
production, nitrogen fixation, and carbon export‐highlighting the importance of new iron …

The mechanism by which nutrients in the deep ocean are uplifted to maintain nutrient-rich
surface waters in the subarctic Pacific has not been properly described. The iron (Fe) supply …

Abstract Purpose of Review Atmospheric aerosol deposition is an important source of
nutrients and pollution to many continental and marine ecosystems. Humans have heavily …
