Particulate Barium Fluxes on the Continental Margin: a Study from the Alboran Sea (western Mediterranean)
Particulate biogenic barium (bio-Ba) fluxes obtained from three instrumented arrays moored in the Alboran Sea, the westernmost basin in the Mediterranean Sea, are presented in this study. The mooring lines were deployed over almost one year, from July 1997 to May 1998, and were equipped with sediment traps at ~500-700 m depth, ~1000-1200 m depth and 30 m above the sea floor (~1000-2200 m). The ...

متن کاملBuilding and Destroying Continental Mantle
Continents, especially their Archean cores, are underlain by thick thermal boundary layers that have been largely isolated from the convecting mantle over billion-year timescales, far exceeding the life span of oceanic thermal boundary layers. This longevity is promoted by the fact that continents are underlain by highly melt-depleted peridotites, which result in a chemically distinct boundary ...
متن کاملAnalysis of the circulation and shelf-slope exchanges in the continental margin of the northwestern Mediterranean
In this paper, we present the results from a high horizontal resolution numerical simulation of the northwestern Mediterranean using a z-level, non-hydrostatic, primitive equation ocean model (DieCAST). The high resolution allows an accurate representation of the submarine canyons that presides in the region. The model is one-way coupled to a large scale model of the Mediterranean Sea through o...
متن کاملStart of the Wilson cycle at 3 Ga shown by diamonds from subcontinental mantle.
Mineral inclusions encapsulated in diamonds are the oldest, deepest, and most pristine samples of Earth's mantle. They provide age and chemical information over a period of 3.5 billion years--a span that includes continental crustal growth, atmospheric evolution, and the initiation of plate tectonics. We compiled isotopic and bulk chemical data of silicate and sulfide inclusions and found that ...
