Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Efficiently removal of Ba from REE was achieved. In the analysis of Ce stable isotope ratio, AridusII desolvating nebulizer system enables 10 times higher 140Ce signal intensity. Analyses on Ce stable isotopic fractionation at varying pH condition and natural modern analog indicated that this novel proxy can be successfully utilized to reconstruct Earth’s redox state, particularly from slightly oxic to highly oxic conditions.
