Isotopic ratios of boron and chlorine were measured in the upper 2000 m water column of the Central Indian Ridge from two tectonically active areas, one at 5°S and other at 10°S which coincided with the spreading regime of the Central Indian Ridge (CIR). Boron and chlorine isotopic measurements were...
