Direct measurements of atmospheric iron, cobalt, and aluminum-derived dust deposition at Kerguelen Islands
International audience [1] Atmospheric deposition is one of the major sources of nutrients bringing trace metals to remote marine biota. In this study, total atmospheric deposition and crustal aerosol concentrations were monitored at Kerguelen Islands (49 18′S; 70 07′E) in the Southern Ocean during...
