Local hydroclimate alters interpretation of speleothem δ18O records [PDF]
Oxygen isotopes (δ18O) are the most commonly utilized speleothem proxy and have provided many foundational records of paleoclimate. Thus, understanding processes affecting speleothem δ18O is crucial.

Early zircon saturation and crystallisation occur in mafic (52–54 wt.% SiO2) lavas at Tengchong volcanic field. These early formed zircons with high δ18O (6.6‰–7.9‰) indicates mantle enrichment by subducted supracrustal materials. ABSTRACT Late Pleistocene (< 0.2 Ma) mafic and evolved volcanic rocks occur in northern Tengchong Volcanic Field, SE ...

Eclogitic diamonds from variable crustal protoliths in the northeastern Siberian craton: trace elements and coupled δ13C – δ18O signatures in diamonds and garnet inclusions [PDF]
Diamonds of eclogitic assemblages are dominant in the placer diamond deposits of the northeastern Siberian platform. In this study we present new trace elements and stable isotopes (δ13C and δ18O) data for alluvial diamonds and their garnet inclusions ...

Stable isotope (δ18O,δ13C) results of speleothems from Angelica Cave (central Brazil)
Here we present a speleothem oxygen isotope (δ18O) and carbon isotope (δ13C) record from Angelica Cave in central Brazil (13.40°S, 46.23°W, ~585 m above sea level). The record is based on three stalagmite samples, AG1, AG2 and AG4.

Intra‐Plant Nitrogen Isotope Fractionation in Maize
ABSTRACT Background and aim The natural abundance of nitrogen isotopes (δ15N) provides a powerful integrative tracer of nitrogen uptake and assimilation in plants, yet the internal partitioning of δ15N among plant tissues remains insufficiently understood.

Regional seawater δ18O records and global δ18O seawater-stack over the mid-Pleistocene transition
High-resolution seawater δ18O records, derived from coupled benthic foraminifera Mg/Ca and δ18O analyses, can be used to evaluate how global ice volume changed during the Mid-Pleistocene Transition (MPT, ~1250-600 ka ago).
