Trace element data from RV Southern Surveyor voyage SS2011_V02

Created 25/06/2025

This research facilitated Australian leadership in the new international GEOTRACES program (www.geotraces.org), studying a wide range of chemical, physical and biological processes involved in the cycling and supply of trace elements and their isotopes (TEIs) in the ocean, and their sensitivity to changing environmental and climatic conditions. The GEOTRACES survey gp13 was the first to map the three-dimensional distribution of of TEIs in the southwest Pacific Ocean, and conducted experiments to understand their sources, sinks and internal cycling. This dataset sourced from the GEOTRACES data portal includes copper, cadmium, iron, manganese, lead and zinc concentration measurements at depths up to 6000 m.
