Read MorePaper in press: Barium-isotopic mass balance of subduction zones
Study led by Sune Nielsen published in Geochim. et Cosmochim. Acta exploring the ‘ins and outs’ of the Aleutian and Ryukyu Arcs, showing only minor fractionations associated with Ba mobilization from the down-going slab, thus underscoring the utility of Ba isotopes to apportion fluid sources to arc magmas. Full citation: Nielsen, S. G., Shu, Y.,…

Study led by Haifeng Fan published in Geobiol. showing a significant perturbation to marine redox conditions during the Shuram negative C isotope excursion. Full citation: Fan, H., Nielsen, S. G., Owens, J. D., Auro, M., Shu, Y., Hardisty, D. S., Horner, T. J., Bowman, C. N., Young, S. A., & Wen, H. (2020). Constraining oceanic…
Read MoreWelcome Dani!
We’re pleased to welcome Danielle Santiago Ramos, WHOI Postdoctoral Scholar, to the NIRVANA Labs! Dani will be working with Sune Nielsen (G&G) and Frieder Klein (MC&G) on potassium isotope cycling in subduction zones.
Read MorePaper in press: Observing oxidation of iodide
Study led by Dalton Hardisty published in Chem. Geol. reporting direct evidence of iodide oxidation under marine-analogue conditions, made possible by the development of a novel, high-sensitivity MC-ICP-MS method. Full citation: Hardisty, D. S., Horner, T. J., Wankel, S. D., Blusztajn, J., & Nielsen, S. G. (2020). Experimental observations of marine iodide oxidation using a…
