In the central Arctic Ocean, dissolved rare earth element concentrations ([dREE]) and the neodymium (Nd) isotope compositions are constant throughout the deep water column (>1000 m water depth), indicating unique conditions among the ocean basins and therefore requiring an investigation of seawat...
