Carbon isotope fractionation in plants [PDF]
Phytochemistry, 1981 The objectives of this research are: To develop a theoretical and experimental framework for understanding isotope fractionations in plants; and to develop methods for using this isotope fractionation for understanding the dynamics of CO{sub 2} fixation in plants. Progress is described.

Isotopic ecology of coyotes from scat and road kill carcasses: A complementary approach to feeding experiments. [PDF]
, 2017 Scat is frequently used to study animal diets because it is easy to find and collect, but one concern is that gross fecal analysis (GFA) techniques exaggerate the importance of small-bodied prey to mammalian mesopredator diets.

Ab-initio coupled-cluster effective interactions for the shell model: Application to neutron-rich oxygen and carbon isotopes [PDF]
, 2014 We derive and compute effective valence-space shell-model interactions from ab-initio coupled-cluster theory and apply them to open-shell and neutron-rich oxygen and carbon isotopes.

Carbon Isotopic Measurements of Nanotubes to Differentiate Carbon Sources [PDF]
ACS Omega, 2019 Stable carbon isotope (δ(13C)) analysis can provide information concerning the starting materials and the production process of a material. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are produced using a variety of starting materials, catalysts, and production methods.

The effect of 12C + 12C rate uncertainties on s-process yields [PDF]
, 2010 The slow neutron capture process in massive stars (the weak s-process) produces most of the s-only isotopes in the mass region 60 < A < 90. The nuclear reaction rates used in simulations of this process have a profound effect on the final s-process ...

Tracing the source of soil organic matter eroded from temperate forest catchments using carbon and nitrogen isotopes [PDF]
, 2016 Soil erosion continuously redistributes soil and associated soil organic matter (SOM) on the Earth's surface, with important implications for biogeochemical cycling of essential elements and terrestrial carbon sequestration.

Isotopic Composition of Carbon in Vinegars
Journal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 1985 Abstract Measurements of δ13C and 14C-activity were performed on vinegars from various known sources. Natural vinegar can be distinguished from petrochemical acetic acid by 14C-analysis: Natural vinegar currently gives values of > 112% of modern activity; petrochemical acetic acid yields values of 0% of modern activity.
