| Summary: | 19th Annual V.M. Goldschmidt Conference - Challenges to Our Volatile Planet, Davos, Switzerland, 21-26 June, 2009 The behavior of Pt in the oceans is still controversial since the data presently available for Pt are not oceanographically consistent with respect to their basin-to-basin variation [1]. Accordingly, a recycled-type behavior in the Pacific [2], a scavenged-type profile in the Indian [3] and concentrations invariant with depth in the North Atlantic [4] were reported. Besides, the environmental emission and long range transport of Pt due to its use in catalytic converters in cars for more than two decades now Pt [5] indicated the need for a new insight on the distribution of dissolved Pt in the North Atlantic Ocean No
