University of Wyoming geology Professor and National Geographic Explorer Ken Sims has published a new book on the application of isotopes to understanding earth system processes. “Isotopic Constraints ...

Like everything we see in the world, isotopes are a type of atom, the smallest unit of matter that retains all the chemical properties of an element. Isotopes are forms of a chemical element with ...

Nuclear and isotopic techniques can help us to better understand the world we live in. The data we gather with these techniques can lead to improved, science-based policy making, including in relation ...

A study of the upper atmosphere's composition has successfully measured an increased presence of 18 O, a heavier oxygen isotope with 10 instead of eight neutrons. Helmut Wiesemeyer (MPIfR Bonn) and ...

The Organic and Stable Isotope Biogeochemistry Laboratory (OSIBL) is a service center specializing in the analysis of organic compound abundance, compound-specific H and C isotopes, organic matter %C, ...

The Stable Isotope Core Laboratory housed at the CNRC is comprised of the The Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry Laboratory and the Gas/Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry Laboratory. This ...

Roughly two-thirds of all atmospheric methane, a potent greenhouse gas, comes from methanogens. Tracking down which methanogens in which environment produce methane with a specific isotope signature ...
