 note = {Plutonium (Pu) isotopes are one of most important artificial radionuclides. Recent advance in analytical methodology of Pu have made Pu play a vital role in tracing the transport of biogenic elements and pollutants, sediment deposition/resuspension and other marine process. The various atom ratios of Pu isotopes (238Pu, 239Pu, 240Pu and 241Pu) depending on the sources of Pu are useful to identify the contribution of different sources and these atom ratios can be utilized to indicate the marine process. The aim of this manuscript is to provide an overview of the application of Pu for various processes in the marine environment, such as determination of recent sedimentation rate, indicating sediment transport and deposition/resuspension, and water mass transport, etc, based on the knowledge of analytical methodology advance and geochemical behavior of Pu. Furthermore, it is expected to provide new insights into broadening the application of Pu in the marine environment and help to better understand the land-sea interaction and global climate change.},
