Application of Thallium Isotopes - Tracking Marine Oxygenation through Manganese Oxide Burial

Tracking initial ocean (de)oxygenation is critical to better constrain the coevolution of life and environment. Development of thallium isotopes has provided evidence to track the global manganese oxide burial which responds to early (de)oxygenation for short-term climate events. This Element provides an introduction to the application of thallium isotopes, case studies, and future directions.
