Magnesium (Mg) has an atomic number of 12 and belongs to the alkaline earth element
(Group II) of the Periodic Table. The pure Mg is a silvery white metal and has a melting point …

The dissolution rates of olivine have been considered by a plethora of studies in part due to
its potential to aid in carbon storage and the ease in obtaining pure samples for laboratory …

The nine editions of Stable Isotope Geochemistry have appeared over a time span of nearly
50 years. The first edition (1973) appeared as a slim book of 135 pages. Due to the rapid …

Shallow-water carbonate sediments constitute the bulk of sedimentary carbonates in the
geologic record and are widely used archives of Earth's chemical and climatic history. One …

Humankind will need to remove hundreds of gigatons of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the
atmosphere by the end of the 21st century to keep global warming below 2° C within the …

The isotopic systems of boron and magnesium are increasingly being used as proxies for a
number of environmental variables and processes. The isotopic composition of seawater for …

The oceanic biogeochemical cycles of the transition metals have been eliciting considerable
attention for some time. Many of them have isotope systems that are fractionated by key …

Groundwater-derived solute fluxes to the ocean have long been assumed static and
subordinate to riverine fluxes, if not neglected entirely, in marine isotope budgets. Here we …

It has long been recognized that Earth and other differentiated planetary bodies are
chemically fractionated compared to primitive, chondritic meteorites and, by inference, the …

Magnesium isotopic compositions of a profile through saprolites developed on a diabase
dike from South Carolina have been measured in order to study the behavior of Mg isotopes …
