Biogenic silica recycling in sea ice inferred from Si-isotopes: constraints from Arctic winter first-year sea ice
We report silicon isotopic composition (d 30 Si vs. NBS28) in Arctic sea ice, based on sampling of silicic acid from both brine and seawater in a small Greenlandic bay in March 2010. Our measurements show that just before the productive period, d 30 Si of sea-ice brine similar to d 30 Si of the unde...

We report silicon isotopic composition (d 30 Si vs. NBS28) in Arctic sea ice, based on sampling of silicic acid from both brine and seawater in a small Greenlandic bay in March 2010. Our measurements show that just before the productive period, d 30 Si of sea-ice brine similar to d 30 Si of the underlying seawater. Hence, there is no Si isotopic fractionation during sea-ice growth by physical processes such as brine convection. This finding brings credit and support to the conclusions of previous work on the impact of biogenic processes on sea ice d 30 Si: any d 30 Si change results from a combination of biogenic silica production and dissolution. We use this insight to interpret data from an earlier study of sea-ice d 30 Si in Antarctic pack ice that show a large accumulation of biogenic silica.
