Non-conservative nature of boron in Arctic marginal ice zones

Abstract: The Arctic Ocean is experiencing a net loss of sea ice. Ice-free Septembers are predicted by 2050 with intensified seasonal melt and freshening. Accurate carbon dioxide uptake estimates rely on meticulous assessments of carbonate parameters including total alkalinity. The third largest contributor to oceanic alkalinity is boron (as borate ions). Boron has been shown to be conservative in open ocean systems, and the boron to salinity ratio (boron/salinity) is therefore used to account for boron alkalinity in li… Show more
