The barium biogeochemical cycle in the Mediterranean: bacterial barite precipitation and implication for paleoproductivity reconstructions

[EN] This thesis aims to investigate the Ba biogeochemical cycle in the Mediterranean Sea by analyzing this element in both the sedimentary record in the Mediterranean basins and in the water column, and also from exploring the barite (BaSO4) precipitation mechanisms in marine environments.
