Processes affecting the cycling of iron in the Atlantic Ocean
Iron is important in determining the biogeochemistry of the oceans and has a strong control on ocean productivity. The sources of iron vary from atmospheric supply of desert dust, resuspension of oceanic sediments and fluxing of volcanic material out of vents into the deep ocean. Iron is very reacti...
