Petroleum pollution in the marine environment can be deleterious to coastal and marine ecosystems and can have sustained effects for years. While oil slicks on the surface of the ocean are tracked with relative ease using satellite-based technology, deep sea, neutrally-buoyant hydrocarbon plumes remain exceedingly difficult to track. We provide evidence for the utility of 224Ra as a potential hydrocarbon tracer to determine the marine exposure time of crude oil. We employed time course incubations to constrain a time dependent 224Ra release signature and tested a variety of timescales, temporal resolutions, oil sources, seawater, and experimental treatments to determine potential factors that contribute to the variability of 224Ra release from hydrocarbons into seawater. Our results show quantitative release of 224Ra from crude oil in contact with seawater and similar temporal variability (which increases with finer temporal resolution) in 224Ra activity between two oil sources, regardless of the overall magnitude of release. The magnitude of 224Ra release from crude oil is proposed to vary depending on the geochemistry of the source reservoir and biological activity therein as well as geochemical alterations as the oil flows through geologic conduits. Mechanisms of release are thought to be primarily associated with chemical degradation (i.e., photo- and bio-degradation) of the oil matrix and cation exchange processes. These interpretations warrant further investigation. However, our results provide the first evidence that release of 224Ra from crude oil represents a disequilibrium from its particle-sorbed parent isotopes suggesting this isotope may be useful for examining the temporal dynamics of oceanic hydrocarbon plumes.
