| Abstract: | We discuss the basic requirements for a successful modeling of210Pb in the ocean as a test tracer for at least other lead isotopes, but also of other elements that behave similarly to lead.
With the aid of realistic models of the oceanic circulation and the major biogeochemical cycles in it, the result is a dynamically
consistent model of lead cycling that reproduces observed profiles within 10%. |
