摘要：

New developments in ocean paleoproductivity and paleochemistry have involved the application of tracers that record seawater composition, that document sedimentary fluxes, and that may be used to infer oceanic processes. These include the use of Cd/Ca and Ba/Ca ratios in benthic foraminifera, rare earth element patterns of chemical sediments, uranium-series nuclides in carbonate sediments and studies of the origins of chemical fluxes and anomalies in sedimentary profiles.
