Trace Metal Fluxes of Cd, Cu, Pb and Zn From the Congo River Into the South Atlantic Ocean Are Supplemented by Atmospheric Inputs

Abstract The Congo River supplies vast quantities of trace metals (TMs) to the South Atlantic Ocean, but TM budgets for the Congo plume derived using radium isotopes for GEOTRACES cruise GA08 suggest additional input other than the river outflow. Considering the tight correlations between most disso...
