[8a-Z25-11] Distribution of the cosmogenic Be isotopes concentration in seawater in the Eastern South Pacific (Ⅱ)
Keywords:Accelerator Mass Spectrometry, Cosmogenic Nuclide, Eastern South Pacific
Cosmogenic nuclides 7Be (half-life 53.3 days) and 10Be (half-life 1.36 My) are produced in the upper atmosphere by nuclear interactions between secondary cosmic rays and atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen. The residence time of Be in the ocean is estimated to be 400-1000 years. The depth profile of 10Be concentration in seawater appeared increases with the depth, which is called a recycle type. In this presentation, to consider the 10Be circulation in the ocean from the depth distribution of 10Be concentration in the eastern South Pacific.
