Magnesium is a major constituent in silicate and carbonate
minerals, the hydrosphere and the biosphere. Magnesium is
constantly cycled between these reservoirs. Since each of the major
planetary reservoirs of magnesium have different magnesium isotope
ratios, there is scope to use magnesium isotope ratios to trace 1)
the processes that cycle Magnesium at a spatial scales from the
entire planet to microscopic and 2) the relative fluxes between
these reservoirs. This review summarises some of the key
motivations, successes and challenges facing the use of magnesium
isotopes to construct a budget of seawater magnesium, present and
past.
