Since the rare earth elements (REEs) determination in waters is still not a routine procedure,
different analytical protocols have been developed to deal with complexity and variability of …

This review discusses and compares the methods given for the determination of rare earth
elements (REE) in natural water samples, including sea, river, lake, tap, ground and waste …

The neodymium (Nd) isotopic composition of seawater has been used extensively to
reconstruct ocean circulation on a variety of time scales. However, dissolved neodymium …

The rare earth elements and yttrium (REY) are critical resources increasingly released into
the environment due to their pivotal role for an ever-growing number of high-tech products …

The neodymium (Nd) isotopic composition of seawater is commonly used as a proxy to study
past changes in the thermohaline circulation. The modern database for such reconstructions …

The molybdenum (Mo) stable isotope system has been applied to a variety of geochemical
and environmental problems. In the absence of a universally accepted zero-delta reference …

Skeletal and non-skeletal components of marine sedimentary rocks have been analyzed for
the purpose of reconstructing the rare earth element (REE) and yttrium (Y) compositions of …

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 …

The use of the rare earth element gadolinium (Gd) in contrast agents for magnetic
resonance imaging has led to a significant (micro-) contamination of riverine and coastal …

Plots of chondrite-normalised rare earth element (REE) patterns often appear as smooth
curves. These curves can be decomposed into orthogonal polynomial functions (shape …
