Lead (Pb) isotopes are widely used in tracing processes that transport Pb within the environment due to the globally spread Pb pollution. In today’s ocean, Pb is mainly sourced from anthropogenic emissions and is removed by particle scavenging. However, recent efforts involving Pb isotopes have star...
