“…LA-ICP-MS attains better detection limits (at the ppm level for trace elements in the medium-to high-mass range which are not typically affected by polyatomic interferences) than electron beam techniques and is considerably cheaper than SIMS. The improvement of data reduction schemes (e.g., Hellstrom et al, 2008;Paton et al, 2011) has paved the way for the transition from spot and raster analyses to trace element distribution maps (Woodhead et al, 2007;Woodhead et al, 2008;Paul et al, 2012;Paul et al, 2014;Rittner and Müller, 2012). Ulrich et al (2009) explored the possibilities of the LA-ICP-MS mapping and its applications to a variety of geological systems.…”

920 to 650 °C, calculated diffusivities are in agreement with a previously established Arrhenius relationship calibrated on trace-element-poor Mud Tank zircon. Our revised Arrhenius relationship that includes both datasets is:We also observed that synthetic sector-zoned zircon exhibits near-step-function Li concentration profiles across sectors that correlate with changes in the rare earth element (REE) and P concentrations. This allowed us to examine how Li diffusion might couple with REE diffusion in a manner different than that described above. In particular, re-heating these grains revealed significant Li migration, but no detectable migration of the rare earth elements. Thus, unlike most elements in zircon which are not mobile at the micrometer scale under most timetemperature paths in the crust, Li zoning, relaxation of zoning, or lack of zoning altogether could be used to reveal time-temperature information. Discrete ~10 μm concentration zones of Li within zircon may be partially preserved at 700 °C for tens to hundreds of years, and at 450 °C for millions of years. In this regard, Li zoning in zircon holds significant potential as a geospeedometer, and in some instances as a qualitative indicator of the maximum temperature experienced by the zircon.

Ablation spots that resulted within the first translucent zone and first opaque zone (hereafter referred to as 'core' and 'post-core' respectively) were averaged to obtain a mean elemental concentration for each of the periods.…”

Abstract. Albacore (Thunnus alalunga) in the North Atlantic Ocean is currently managed as a single well-mixed stock, although this assumption remains contentious. We measured stable isotopes (d 13 C and d 18O) and trace elements (Mg, Mn, Sr, Ba) in otoliths of albacore collected from two feeding grounds, namely the Bay of Biscay and Atlantic offshore waters, and compared them among sampling locations and life history stages. Measurements in otolith core, post-core and edge were used to determine whether albacore from these two regions have the same nursery origin and migratory patterns. We found no clear evidence of distinct nursery grounds based on otolith core chemistry, but Sr : Ca and Mg : Ca were different in the post-core portions of albacore from the two locations, suggesting residency in different regions during the early juvenile stage. Otolith edge chemistry, particularly stable isotopes and Sr : Ca, proved to be a valuable tool for classifying individuals to their capture locations. Annual cycles of Sr : Ca ratios were visible along life history transects, likely reflecting migratory patterns between water masses of differing salinity, but the timing of Sr : Ca cycles differed between the two groups. Differentiation in trace element concentrations in the otolith post-core and the timing of Sr : Ca cycles suggest the occurrence of two migratory contingents of albacore in the north-east Atlantic Ocean.
