<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Abstract:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The micronutrient element iron plays a major role in setting the patterns and distribution of primary production and carbon cycling across the global oceans. As such, understanding the sources, sinks, and internal cycling processes that
drive the oceanic distribution of iron is key to unlocking the role of iron in the global ocean and climate system, whether today, in the geologic past, or in the 'anthropogenic' future. In the last decade, stimulated largely by the International GEOTRACES
Program, dissolved iron isotope analyses of seawater (and source<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">materials) have emerged as a transformative tool for diagnosing iron sources to the ocean, and tracking iron through the ocean. In this talk, I will present an overview of the explosion of new oceanic dissolved iron concentration and
isotope data, as well as several case studies that show how iron isotopes have revolutionized our understanding of boundary sources such as atmospheric dust, underwater volcanoes and vents, and marine sediments, and, remarkably, how they also show iron can
be carried thousands of kilometers through the ocean.<o:p></o:p></p>
