Bacterial scavenging of 234Th in surface ocean waters

Abstract

2 3 4 ~h was determined in the dssolved (< 0.1 pm), bacterial (0.1 to 1.0 pm) and 2 larger particulate pools (1 to 5 pm and >5 um) at 5 or 6 depths in the upper 120 m of the water column at a station (31'51.6' N, 119"31.9' W) in the Southern California Bight during October 1989 and July 1990.
