Isotopes in pyrogenic carbon: A review [PDF]
Pyrogenic carbon (PC; also known as biochar, charcoal, black carbon and soot) derived from natural and anthropogenic burning plays a major, but poorly quantified, role in the global carbon cycle. Isotopes provide a fundamental fingerprint of the source of PC and a powerful tracer of interactions between PC and the environment.

Degradation changes stable carbon isotope depth profiles in palsa peatlands [PDF]
Palsa peatlands are a significant carbon pool in the global carbon cycle and are projected to change by global warming due to accelerated permafrost thaw. Our aim was to use stable carbon isotopes as indicators of palsa degradation.

A STUDY OF QUANTUM ISOTOPIC SIEVING THORUGH CARBON NANOTUBES [PDF]
The theory of molecular sieving has long been a subject of importance because of its widespread technological applications .Classical molecular sieving mainly de- pends on the size and shape of the guest molecules and the size of the host solid.

Stable and radiogenic isotopes as tracers for soil degradation [PDF]
Soil erosion seriously threatens mountain slopes. Direct measurement of soil erosion in the field is difficult and needs long term recording. However, stable and radiogenic isotopes are potential tracers for soil erosion estimation and would enable a ...

A method to detect soil carbon degradation during soil erosion [PDF]
Soil erosion has been discussed intensively but controversial both as a significant source or a significant sink of atmospheric carbon possibly explaining the gap in the global carbon budget.

Radiocarbon reservoir effects in human bone collagen from northern Iceland [PDF]
Human bone collagen from a series of Icelandic human pagan graves was radiocarbon (14C) dated to aid understanding of early settlement (landnám) chronologies in northern Iceland. These individuals potentially consumed marine protein.
