Triple Si isotopes in archean cherts
The goal of this project is to determine the fractionation systematics of the 3 silicon isotopes during silica precipitation and to apply it to the study of the Si isotopic compositions of Archean cherts in an attempt to improve the understanding of the Archean marine Si cycle and the Archean ocean temperature reconstructions
