An additional 83 pore fluid and 29 sediment samples were analyzed for Ba concentrations from Sites 1039 and 1040 drilled during ODP Leg 170 offshore Costa Rica. Sites 1039/1253 and 1040/1254 are part of a transect across the Middle America Trench offshore Nicoya Peninsula. The entire incoming sediment section is being underthrust beneath the margin, providing an ideal setting to examine Ba cycling in the shallow levels of the subduction zone. Results from these analyses indicate that a significant amount of Ba is liberated from the mineral barite (BaSO (sub 4) ) in the uppermost hemipelagic sediments arcward of the trench. The shallow distillation of Ba may impact the amount of sedimentary Ba reaching the deeper subduction zone.completedGeneral geochemistryalkaline earth metalsbariumCentral Americacontinental marginCosta RicaEast Pacificgeochemical cyclegeochemistryhydrochemistryLeg 205marine sedimentsmetalsMiddle America TrenchNorth PacificNortheast PacificOcean Drilling ProgramPacific Oceanpore watersea watersedimentsurn:org.iodp:exp:205urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignEnglishgeoscientificInformation-86.1200-86.10009.38009.4000Data report; available only on CD-ROM in PDF format and on the Web in PDF or HTMLapplication/pdfunknownSEDIS Publication Catalogueana.macario@awi.dehttp://sedis.iodp.org/pub-catalogue/informationpointOfContacthttp://www-odp.tamu.edu/publications/205_SR/VOLUME/CHAPTERS/210.PDFdownload
