Abstract The Miocene epoch (23.03–5.33 Ma) was a time interval of global warmth, relative
to today. Continental configurations and mountain topography transitioned toward modern …

To improve our understanding and guide future studies and applications, we review the
biogeochemistry of the rare earth elements (REE). The REEs, which form a chemically …

Understanding ice sheet behaviour in the geological past is essential for evaluating the role
of the cryosphere in the climate system and for projecting rates and magnitudes of sea level …

The rare earth elements (REEs) are an important tool for understanding biogeochemical
cycling and sedimentary processes in the global ocean. However, ambiguities in the marine …

Abstract Neodymium isotopic compositions (143 Nd/144 Nd or ε Nd) have been used as a
tracer of water masses and lithogenic inputs to the ocean. To further evaluate the …

Before submarine hydrothermal vents were discovered, the 87 Sr/86 Sr record of seawater
was interpreted as a mixture of unradiogenic basaltic and radiogenic granitic continental …

Our understanding of past ocean-climate dynamics is informed by multiple paleocirculation
proxies including δ 13 C, 231 Pa/230 Th, and radiogenic neodymium isotopes (ε Nd). Of …

Abstract The Global Overturning Circulation is linked to climate change on glacial-
interglacial and multi-millennial timescales. The understanding of past climate-circulation …

Neodymium (Nd) isotopes are considered a valuable tracer of modern and past ocean
circulation. However, the promise of Nd isotope as a water mass tracer is hindered because …

Abstract The Arabian Sea, one of the most biologically productive oceanic regions, receive
significant amount of nutrients through aeolian dust deposition which have potential to …
