Osmium uptake, distribution, and 187Os/188Os and 187Re/188Os compositions in Phaeophyceae macroalgae, Fucus vesiculosus: Implications for determining the 187Os/188Os composition of seawater. Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 199, 48-57. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gca.2016.11.033

The osmium isotopic composition (187Os/188Os) of seawater reflects the balance of input from mantle-, continental- and anthropogenic-derived sources. This study utilizes the Phaeophyceae, Fucus vesiculosus, to analyse its Os abundance and uptake, as...

Highly siderophile element and 182W evidence for a partial late veneer in the source of 3.8 Ga rocks from Isua, Greenland (2016)
Journal Article
Dale, C., Kruijer, T., & Burton, K. (2017). Highly siderophile element and 182W evidence for a partial late veneer in the source of 3.8 Ga rocks from Isua, Greenland. Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 458, 394-404. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2016.11.001

The higher-than-expected concentrations of highly siderophile elements (HSE) in Earth's mantle most likely indicate that Earth received a small amount of late accreted mass after core formation had ceased, known as the ‘late veneer’. Small 182W exces... Read More about Highly siderophile element and 182W evidence for a partial late veneer in the source of 3.8 Ga rocks from Isua, Greenland.

Molybdenum isotope fractionation in the mantle (2016)
Journal Article
Liang, Y., Halliday, A. N., Siebert, C., Fitton, J. G., Burton, K. W., Wang, K., & Harvey, J. (2017). Molybdenum isotope fractionation in the mantle. Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 199, 91-111. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gca.2016.11.023

We report double-spike molybdenum (Mo) isotope data for forty-two mafic and fifteen ultramafic rocks from diverse locations and compare these with results for five chondrites. The δ98/95Mo values (normalized to NIST SRM 3134) range from −0.59 ± 0.04... Read More about Molybdenum isotope fractionation in the mantle.

This study reports stable and radiogenic strontium isotope behaviour in the dissolved load and suspended sediments from the subglacial outflow of the Lemon Creek glacier (Juneau Ice Field, Alaska) over a single melt season. In situ measurements (disc... Read More about Insights into combined radiogenic and stable strontium isotopes as tracers for weathering processes in subglacial environments.

The effect of hydrothermal spring weathering processes and primary productivity on lithium isotopes: Lake Myvatn, Iceland (2016)
Journal Article
