This lab, currently under the guidance of
Dr. Kenneth Coale, is
one of the few labs in the world that can accurately collect and measure
the low levels of trace metals in the ocean. Trace element distributions
have been measured all over the world. They have participated in large,
long term studies such as VERTEX and JGOFS which examine the processes that
determine how elements are cycled throughout the oceans. They have most
recently played a large role in the IronEX studies. The trace metal group
was most recently on a cruise in the Southern Ocean
around Antarctica determining iron and and nutrient distributions and conducting
a Southern Ocean iron fertilization experiment.
