    the global C-cycle. Hence secular variation of elemental and concentrations and isotopic compositions of seawater can reflect major changes in the lithosphere and the atmosphere over geologic time. Consequently, elemental and isotopic composition of marine chemical sediments (e.g., carbonates, oxides and evaporates) have been utilized extensively as geologic archives that potentially record secular variation of ocean chemistry. Long oceanic residence time of metals like Ca, Mg, and Sr makes them potential
