Role of Source, Mineralogy, and Organic Complexation on Lability and Fe Isotopic Composition of Terrestrial Fe sources to the Gulf of Alaska

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Iron (Fe) is a key trace nutrient supporting marine primary production, and its deposition in the surface ocean can impact multiple biogeochemical cycles. Understanding Fe cycling in the subarctic is key for tracking the fate of particulate-bound sources of oceans in a changing climate. Recently, Fe isotope ratios have been proposed as a potential tool to trace sources of Fe to the marine environment. Here, we investigate the Fe isotopic composition of terrestrial sources of Fe including glacial sediment, loess, volcanic ash, and wildfire aerosols, all from Alaska. Results show that the δ
