The biogeochemical cycling of metals in natural systems is often accompanied by stable
isotope fractionation which can now be measured due to recent analytical advances. In …

This review focuses on the rapidly growing field of natural 238U/235U variability, largely
driven by the technical advances in the measurement of U isotope ratios by mass …

Using full-colour palaeogeographical maps from the Cambrian to the present, this
interdisciplinary volume explains how plate motions and surface volcanism are linked to …

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 …

Isotopic variations usually follow mass-dependent fractionation, meaning that the relative
variations in isotopic ratios scale with the difference in mass of the isotopes involved (eg …

The 238 U/235 U isotopic composition of uranium in seawater can provide important insights
into the modern U budget of the oceans. Using the double spike technique and a new data …

Tectonic or subduction erosion refers to the removal of upper-plate material from the forearc
at convergent margins. Subduction erosion has been suggested to represent a major …

The oxygenation of the deep ocean in the geological past has been associated with a rise in
the partial pressure of atmospheric molecular oxygen (O2) to near-present levels and the …

The emergence and diversification of early animals is commonly thought to have coincided
with atmosphere and ocean oxygenation across the terminal Neoproterozoic and early …

Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 (OAE 2), occurring∼ 94 million years ago, was one of the most
extreme carbon cycle and climatic perturbations of the Phanerozoic Eon. It was typified by a …
