Table_1_Tracing the Atmospheric Input of Seawater-Dissolvable Pb Based on the Budget of 210Pb in the East Sea (Japan Sea).xlsx
In order to determine the atmospheric input of 210 Pb and seawater-dissolvable Pb in the East Sea (Japan Sea), we measured the concentrations of total 210 Pb and dissolved Pb (<0.2 μm) in seawater and 210 Pb and 226 Ra in sinking particles. The East Sea is deep (∼3700 m) and enclosed by surroundi...

In order to determine the atmospheric input of 210 Pb and seawater-dissolvable Pb in the East Sea (Japan Sea), we measured the concentrations of total 210 Pb and dissolved Pb (<0.2 μm) in seawater and 210 Pb and 226 Ra in sinking particles. The East Sea is deep (∼3700 m) and enclosed by surrounding continents except for the shallow sills (<150 m). Since the East Sea is located off the East Asian continent under the westerlies, the concentrations of 210 Pb and dissolved Pb in this sea are significantly affected by terrestrial sources through the atmosphere. The vertical profiles of total 210 Pb and dissolved Pb generally showed a surface maximum and then decreased with depth. The concentrations of dissolved Pb in the surface water were 2 and 3 times higher than those in the North Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans, respectively. Using an independent box model (upper 1000 m or 2000 m), we estimate the atmospheric input of 210 Pb to be 1.46 ± 0.25 dpm cm −2 y − 1 , which is within the range of published results from the land-based sites (0.44–4.40 dpm cm −2 y − 1 ) in South Korea, China, and Japan. Based on this flux, the residence time of total 210 Pb in the East Sea is calculated to be approximately 7.1 ± 1.6 years, which is twice lower than the previous estimation.
