Naturally-occurring stable isotopes of water and other substances are used to trace the origin, history, sources, sinks and interactions in water, carbon and nitrogen cycles. Stable isotopes can also ...

Stable isotopes have helped uncover migratory routes, trophic levels, and the geographic origin of migratory animals. They can be used on land as well as in the ocean and have revolutionized how ...

Stable isotopes are safe, non-radioactive forms of common elements such as carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen that occur naturally in small amounts in the foods and water we consume every day. Because they ...

A team of researchers and geologists discovered a number of animal fossils from the Late Pleistocene epoch during a recent excavation of To Chong cave in Tambon Ao Nang.The dig was carried out by a ...

This measurement provides carbon, oxygen and “clumped” isotope ratios for carbonate minerals ... on-line combustion and high temperature conversion elemental analysis, coupled with continuous flow ...

Carbon has three main isotopes. They are carbon-12 ... Radioactive atoms decay into stable atoms by a simple mathematical process. Half of the available atoms will change in a given period ...
