The oxygen isotope composition of bivalve shells (δ18Oshell) can potentially record environmental variability of shallow lakes and therefore it has been extensively used as a proxy in the reconstruction of past climate and environmental conditions.

Marine Anoxia and Ocean Acidification During the End‐Permian Extinction
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Deer Antler δ<sup>18</sup>O Records Desalination in Israel's Water Supply. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rationale Stable oxygen isotope ratios (δ¹⁸O) in mammalian tissues are widely used to reconstruct past climates, seasonal patterns, and animal origins. These analyses assume that animals drink local rainwater—an assumption now challenged by large‐scale anthropogenic water management.

δ18O of tree rings of beech (Fagus silvatica) as a record of δ18O of the growing season precipitation [PDF]
The measurement of δ18O in cellulose of tree rings is a potential means to reconstruct δ18O variations of precipitation and climate. We present δ18O data from cellulose of 3 beech trees (Fagus silvatica) growing on a relatively dry site in Switzerland ...

CO<sub>2</sub> and N<sub>2</sub>O Emissions From Vehicles in Seoul Megacity, South Korea: Insights From Mixing Ratio and Stable Isotope Ratios. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rationale Vehicular traffic is a major source of anthropogenic greenhouse gases in megacities; however, real‐world constraints on vehicle‐derived N2O emissions and their isotopic characteristics remain limited. Methods Air samples were collected from three tunnels and urban background sites (a university campus and mountain) in Seoul, South ...

Reaffirming the Consistency of the Original Stock of NBS 19 Limestone and Its Byproduct With Finer Grain Size for δ<sup>13</sup>C and δ<sup>18</sup>O Calibrations-Both Distributed Internationally. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rationale Approximately 3–4 kg of NBS 19 limestone, prepared in 1982 by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), serves as a primary reference for the carbon isotope scales VPDB and VPDB‐LSVEC and the oxygen isotope scale VPDB. Its consensus values are +1.95‰ for δ13C and −2.2‰ for δ18O measurements.

Constraining Holocene hydrological changes in the Carpathian–Balkan region using speleothem δ18O and pollen-based temperature reconstructions [PDF]
Here we present a speleothem isotope record (POM2) from Ascunsă Cave (Romania) that provides new data on past climate changes in the Carpathian–Balkan region from 8.2 ka until the present.

DIATOM METHODS | δ18O Records.
Diatom siica is a form of biogenic opal that contains oxygen isotopes which can be used in lacustrine and marine paleoenvironmental studies. Diatom δ18O is a useful indicator of paleoenvironmental conditions, reflecting either the temperature or the ...

Bunker cave stalagmites: An archive for central European Holocene climate variability [PDF]
Holocene climate was characterised by variability on multi-centennial to multi-decadal time scales. In central Europe, these fluctuations were most pronounced during winter.
