[Sr and Nd stable isotopes of mineral dust and organic matter (cryoconite) on Asian glaciers] / Naoko Nagatsuka, and 3 others.
Title: | [Sr and Nd stable isotopes of mineral dust and organic matter (cryoconite) on Asian glaciers] / Naoko Nagatsuka, and 3 others. |
Translated title: | Sr and Nd stable isotopes of mineral dust and organic matter (cryoconite) on Asian glaciers. |
Author(s): | Nagatsuka, Naoko. |
Date: | 2011. |
Language: | Japanese. |
In: | Seppyo : Journal of the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice. (2011.), Vol. 73(5) (2011) |
Abstract: | Uses stable isotope ratios in mineral dust and organic matter (cryoconite) from glaciers in Altay, Tien Shan, Qilian Shan, and Himalaya as tracers in biological and geochemical processes. In all cryoconite fractions - four mineral and one organic - silicate minerals showed highest isotopic ratios. Sr and Nd ratios were respectively higher and lower for glaciers further north. Isotopic ratios close to those of desert sand, loess and river sediment around each glacier indicate local provenance of silicate minerals (Aeolian dusts). Ratios in saline, carbonate and phosphate mineral fractions probably reflect those of their source, and Sr ratios in organic matter those of mineral nutrients used by microbes living on glacier. |
