Peak in 228Ra and particulate Mn, Fe at 135m
Stn K2- Density
Mn and 228Ra are both shelf tracers Fe from the shelf too? Which shelf?

K2
The 26.661-26.761 density layer intersects with both the Okhotsk shelf (left) and Kamchatka shelf (right), though Kamchatka waters have less far to go (Okhotsk needs to recirculate)
