Conference Proceeding
Weber, M. E., Bailey, I., Hemming, S., Martos, Y. M., Reilly, B., Ronge, T. A., …Zheng, X. (2021). Decoupled dust deposition and ocean productivity in the Antarctic Zone of the Southern Ocean.

Southern Ocean paleoceanography provides key insights into how iron fertilization and oceanic productivity developed through Pleistocene ice-ages and their role in influencing the carbon cycle. We report the first high-resolution record of dust depos... Read More about Decoupled dust deposition and ocean productivity in the Antarctic Zone of the Southern Ocean.
