Rare Earth Elements and Nd Isotopes in Hydrothermal Metalliferous Sediments: Pleistocene and Cenozoic Paleoceanography

Project Details

Description

In this study, the PIs will test and develop a new paleoclimate proxy- Rare Earth Element (REE) abundances of carbonate sediments that contain metalliferous sediment originating from hydrothermal plumes. In combination, the PIs will use Nd isotope values (?Nd) as a proxy to help unravel differences in weathering rates and sources from variations in seawater REE abundances due to other causes. The short residence times of the REE (
