. L'échantillon-d, eau a été analysé directement, en utilisant soit le détecteur semi-plan qui permet d'analyser de grand volume mais qui présente une efficacité de détection plus faible, soit le déboîte «Caubère» dite «Small» (CAUBERE®, réf. 4510, Ø = 44 mm, H = 8 mm

, car les activités mesurées étaient sous la limite de détection, En effet, les activités 7 Be sont faibles dans l'océan et diminues vite avec la profondeur. Les échantillons sous la limite de détection et 5 autres échantillons ont été analysés au LAFARA (tableau 7.3) afin d'obtenir des données supplémentaires et d'intercomparer les deux laboratoires, respectivement. En effet, les faibles bruits de fond des spectromètres du laboratoire souterrain LAFARA ont permis de détecter et quantifier les faibles activités de 7

, Les activités déterminées aux stations 21 et 44 sont égales aux erreurs près. Les activités mesurées aux stations 13, 32 et 69 sont légèrement différentes (à 1SD) mais cela reste acceptable, Ces échantillons présentent des activités comprises entre 1.44 et 3.56 Bq m -3 (figure 7.8)

, Ces informations sont utiles pour mieux comprendre les cycles du radium et de l'actinium dans l'océan, afin de déterminer s'ils sont affectés uniquement par la circulation et le mélange de masses d'eaux (traceurs conservatifs) ou par d'autres processus physico-chimiques (agrégation, sédimentation, de mieux comprendre le comportement chimique de ces deux traceurs et de mieux caractériser leurs sources et puits dans l'Atlantique Nord

. Premièrement, Le 226 Ra et le Ba ont été largement utilisés comme traceurs des masses d'eau et du mélange océanique ; l'étude de leur comportement chimique dans cette région est donc cruciale

, Les concentrations élevées de 226 Ra et Ba trouvées dans les eaux profondes du bassin ouest-européen suggèrent que les eaux profondes de l'Atlantique Nord-Est (Lower North East Atlantic Deep Water, NEADWl) accumulent du 226 Ra et du Ba provenant de la diffusion des sédiments et/ou de la dissolution des particules pendant le transport. À l'inverse, dans les premiers 1500 m du bassin ouest-européen, les déficits en 226 Ra et Ba s'expliquent probablement par leur incorporation dans des coquilles calcaires et siliceuses de plancton, ou dans la barytine (BaSO4) par des mécanismes de substitution ou d'adsorption. Enfin, du fait que le Ba et le 226 Ra ont des sources différentes
