ON THE COVER

Deployment of the "trace metal clean" rosette

at 78°N from USCGC Healy as part of the 2015

US GEOTRACES GN01 cruise to the Arctic

Ocean. Water from this cast yielded data for

key biogeochemical parameters such as iron,

aluminum, radium, metal isotopes, and major

nutrients. Photo credit: Katlin Bowman Adamczyk,
