1. GEOTRACES International Programme Co-chairs: Reiner Schlitzer (AWI, Germany) Ed Boyle (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA) GEOTRACES is an international programme which aims to improve the understanding of biogeochemical cycles and large-scale distribution of trace elements and their isotopes in the marine environment Scientists from approximately 35 nations have been involved in the programme, which is designed to study all major ocean basins over the next decade GEOTRACES Science Plan (2006) 2

2. Status of GEOTRACES Section Cruises In red: Planned Sections In yellow: Completed Sections (Dotted yellow: Completed Sections since 2013 SCOR Report) In black: Sections completed as GEOTRACES contribution to the IPY 51 cruises (23 GEOTRACES Section cruises) completed 3

3. GEOTRACES Intermediate Data Product 2014 Launched on February 2014! Ocean Sciences Meeting 2014 (Honolulu, Hawaii) More than 350 persons attended Town Hall meeting Nature and Science Journals featured the release 4

… GEOTRACES Intermediate Data Product 2014 release a data product early in the programme strengthen the collaboration within the project by sharing data attract scientists from other communities (physical and biological oceanography, modelling) o Aims: o It includes hydrographic and marine geochemical data acquired during the first 3 years of the programme 5

5. GEOTRACES Science Highlights: Examples A large dissolved iron- and manganese-rich plume has been detected over the slow- spreading southern Mid-Atlantic Ridge It calls into question the assumption that deep-sea hydrothermal vents along slow- spreading ridges were negligible contributors to the oceanic iron inventory Slow-spreading ridges could be major oceanic iron contributor Saito, Mak A., Abigail E. Noble, Alessandro Tagliabue, Tyler J. Goepfert, Carl H. Lamborg, William J. Jenkins (2013) Slow-spreading submarine ridges in the South Atlantic as a significant oceanic iron source Nature Geoscience 6 (9), DOI: /ngeo

… GEOTRACES Science Highlights: Examples Field data allow constraining total mercury budget Lamborg, C. H., Hammerschmidt, C. R., Bowman, K. L., Swarr, G. J., Munson, K. M., Ohnemus, D. C., Lam P.J., Heimbürger L-E., Rijkenberg M., Saito, M. A. (2014). A global ocean inventory of anthropogenic mercury based on water column measurements. Nature, 512(7512), 65–68. doi: /nature13563 Estimates of the total amount and spatial distribution of anthropogenic mercury in the global ocean were substantially improved Global budgets of total mercury suggest that there has been a tripling of the surface water mercury content and a ~150% increase in the amount of mercury in thermocline waters 13

Dissolved iron sources in the North Atlantic Ocean quantified Using a novel method based on the stable isotopic composition of dissolved Fe, the relative importance of four different dissolved iron (Fe) sources in the North Atlantic Ocean have been precisely determined for the first time Results (contribution of dissolved iron): Saharan dust: % North American margin sediments: % African margins contributes: 1-4 % Hydrothermal venting Mid-Atlantic Ridge: 2-6 % Tim M. Conway, Seth G. John (2014) Quantification of dissolved iron sources to the North Atlantic Ocean, Nature, 511(7508), 212–215. doi: /nature … GEOTRACES Science Highlights: Examples

Copper and zinc oceanic mass balance revisited … GEOTRACES Science Highlights: Examples …with the original approach that takes into account the hitherto ignored constraint of their isotopes Little, S. H., Vance, D., Walker-Brown, C., & Landing, W. M. (2014). The oceanic mass balance of copper and zinc isotopes, investigated by analysis of their inputs, and outputs to ferromanganese oxide sediments. Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 125, 673–693. doi: /j.gca Copper (Cu) oceanic mass balance appears to be roughly in balance, but the zinc (Zn) one is far from being constrained... isotopes reveal that either an "isotopically light sink" or "isotopically heavy source" is missing 15

Designed for use on only a single litre of seawater representing a 1–20 fold reduction in sample size and a 4–130 decrease in blank … GEOTRACES Science Highlights: Examples First simultaneously method for the determination of iron, zinc and cadmium isotopes in small volumes of seawater Tim M. Conway, Angela D. Rosenberg, Jess F. Adkins, Seth G. John (2013), A new method for precise determination of iron, zinc and cadmium stable isotope ratios in seawater by double- spike mass spectrometry, Analytica Chimica Acta, Volume 793, Pages 44-52, DOI: /j.aca The procedure yields data with high precision, allowing estimation of natural variability in the oceans, which spans 1–3‰ for all three isotope systems 16
