Applying radioisotopes in the study of marine processes <\/b><\/p>\n
This 2-week course will provide participants with the fundamental concepts of working with radioactive tracers in the ocean. <\/b><\/p>\n
Who should attend? <\/b><\/p>\n
The program is suitable for university students, marine scientists, and other professionals who are interested in, or will pursue research and\/or management positions that require knowledge of radioactivity and its use in ocean sciences.<\/p>\n
Program content <\/b><\/p>\n
In-depth skills training includes:<\/p>\n
Basics of radioactivity, natural and artificial sources, radionuclide dispersion and deposition models, radioecology and detection of radiation at environmental levels.<\/p>\n
How to use radioisotopes to estimate atmospheric deposition fluxes, particle cycling and fluxes, submarine groundwater discharge, water circulation, paleoceanography and radiochronology.<\/p>\n
Hands-on activities with real samples, including field work, radiochemistry in the laboratory and measurements using alpha and gamma spectrometry, beta and solid scintillation counting.<\/p>\n
Short versions of this course have been held by the RiO5 SCOR Working Group (www.whoi.edu\/website\/CMER\/rio5-working-group) in Xiamen (China, 2016), Paris (France, 2017) and Puerto Rico (USA, 2019).<\/p>\n
