  • Vanadium Isotopes

    A Proxy for Ocean Oxygen Variations

    Series series Elements in Geochemical Tracers in Earth System Science
    Vanadium isotope ratios (51V/50V) have potential to provide information about changes in past ocean oxygen contents. In particular, V isotopes may find utility in tracing variations at non-zero oxygen concentrations because the redox couple that controls V elemental and isotopic abundances in seawater (vanadate-vanadyl) appears to operate around 10M O2. This characteristic sets V isotopes apart ... Read more
