Abstract

A complete transect of surface water samples from the North Sea to the Canary Islands was collected during a continuous period in 2010. The samples were analyzed for total ¹²⁹I and ¹²⁷I isotopes and their iodide and iodate species. The results indicate a large variability in the total ¹²⁹I and its species along the transect, whereas less change and variation are observed for the total ¹²⁷I and its species. Transport of ¹²⁹I from the western English Channel via Biscay Bay is the main source of ¹²⁹I in the northeastern Atlantic Ocean.
