The Influence of Basaltic Islands on the Oceanic REE Distribution: A Case Study From the Tropical South Pacific

The Rare Earth Elements (REEs) have been widely used to investigate marine biogeochemical processes as well as the sources and mixing of water masses. However, there are still important uncertainties about the global aqueous REE cycle with respect to the contributions of highly reactive basaltic min...
