On the effects of circulation, sediment resuspension and biological incorporation by diatoms in an ocean model of aluminium*

The distribution of dissolved aluminium in the West Atlantic Ocean shows a mirror image with that of dissolved silicic acid, hinting at intricate interactions between the ocean cycling of Al and Si. The marine biogeochemistry of Al is of interest because of its potential impact on diatom opal remine...
