Retreat of the Laurentide ice sheet tracked by the isotopic composition of Pb in western North Atlantic seawater during termination 1 by Gutjahr, M, Frank, M, Halliday, A, Keigwin, L

Kinetic isotope effect during reduction of iron from a silicate melt by Cohen, B, Levasseur, S, Zanda, B, Hewins, R, Halliday, A

“…Iron isotopic compositions measured in chondrules from various chondrites vary between δ 57Fe/ 54Fe = +0.9‰ and -2.0‰, a larger range than for igneous rocks. Whether these compositions were inherited from chondrule precursors, resulted from the chondrule-forming process itself or were produced by later parent body alteration is as yet unclear. …”

Effective use of cerium anomalies as a redox proxy in carbonate-dominated marine settings by Tostevin, R, Shields, G, Tarbuck, G, He, T, Clarkson, M, Wood, R

“…Rare earth elements and yttrium (REY) have a distinct distribution pattern in seawater, and this pattern may be faithfully preserved in carbonate sediments and rocks. Anomalous concentrations of redox-sensitive cerium (Ce) compared with neighbouring REY originate in oxic water column conditions, and as such, Ce anomalies can provide a potentially useful redox proxy in carbonate-dominated marine settings. …”

Impact of transforming mental health services for young people in England on patient access, resource use and health: a quasi-experimental study by Rocks, S, Fazel, M, Tsiachristas, A

Experimental Measurements of Trace Element Partitioning Between Lawsonite, Zoisite and Fluid and their Implication for the Composition of Arc Magmas by Martin, L, Wood, B, Turner, S, Rushmer, T

“…These characteristics are consistent with the chemical composition of lawsonite in natural rocks. Experimental trace element partition coefficients for zoisite indicate a preference for HREE relative to LREE. …”

Uranium isotope evidence for an expansion of anoxia in terminal Ediacaran oceans by Tostevin, R, Clarkson, M, Gangl, S, Shields, G, Wood, R, Bowyer, F, Penny, A, Stirling, C

“…We present a new δ238U dataset for carbonate rocks from the Lower Nama Group, Namibia, deposited in a shelf ramp succession during the terminal Neoproterozoic (∼550 to ∼547 Ma). …”

Chemically produced of activated carbon from palm kernel shell for radioactive iodine scrubbing / Mohamad Azman Che Mat Isa by Che Mat Isa, Mohamad Azman

Intertidal seaweeds and their multi-life forms by Anjur, Norashikin, Zakaria @ Ya, Muta Harah, Bujang, Japar Sidik

“…A study on seaweeds diversity and life forms was conducted at two intertidal sites in Negeri Sembilan i.e., (1) Teluk Kemang, a rocky outcrops area extending up to 50 m seaward during low tide, with gradual slope with live and dead corals interspersed with sand and (2) Teluk Pelanduk, a stretch of up to 150 m flat beach with mostly mud, sand and little rocks in between. A total of 36 species (16 Chlorophyta, 10 Phaeophyta and 10 Rhodophyta) and 26 species (11 Chlorophyta, 6 Phaeophyta and 9 Rhodophyta) of seaweeds were identified at Teluk Kemang and Teluk Pelanduk, respectively. …”
