Exploring methane cycling in an arctic lake in Kangerlussuaq Greenland using stable isotopes and 16S rRNA gene sequencing

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Lakes are currently responsible for a significant amount of total natural methane emission. Microbial oxidation of methane plays a central role in Arctic carbon cycling, potentially reducing methane emissions from lakes, though little is known about ...

Fatty acid stable isotopes add clarity, but also complexity, to tracing energy pathways in aquatic food webs

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Tracing the flow of dietary energy sources, especially in systems with a high degree of omnivory, is an ongoing challenge in ecology. In aquatic systems, one of the persistent challenges is in differentiating between autochthonous and allochthonous ...

Seasonally resolved growth of freshwater bivalves determined by oxygen and carbon isotope shell chemistry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
By means of a monitoring experiment in two rivers in the Netherlands, we establish a relationship between seasonally resolved growth rates in unionid freshwater bivalves and their environment.

Using 13C-, 15N-, and 18O stable isotope analysis of human bone tissue to identify transhumance, high altitude habitation and reconstruct palaeodiet for the early medieval Alpine population at Volders, Austria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The analysis of stable isotopes of oxygen from structural carbonate in archaeological human bone samples originating from an early medieval cemetery in the Alpine community of Volders, Austria were used to determine the utilization of higher altitudes ...

Application and Prospect of Stable Carbon Isotope to the Study of Carbon Cycle in Grassland Ecosystem

open access: yesShuitu baochi yanjiu, 2021
Utilizing stable carbon isotopes to trace the nutrient circulation and energy flow in ecosystem, trace the dynamics of carbon transfer in ecosystem quantitatively, and clarify the ecosystem carbon cycle and its driving mechanism has become an important ...

Carbon and oxygen isotope variation and its implication for marine sequence: A case study of Ordovician in Tarim Basin

open access: yesPetroleum Research, 2017
Carbon and oxygen isotopes of marine carbonate rocks or fossil shells could indicate global sea-level relative change. Generally, heavier carbon isotopes or lighter oxygen isotopes reflected rise of global sea-level relative changes, and vice versa.

Conduits of contamination to contemporary food webs of the Norfolk Broads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
PhDDuring the 1960s-1980s antifouling applications containing the organotin tributyltin (TBT) were applied to craft on the Norfolk Broads, leaving a legacy of contaminants in sediments.

Tracing the Deep Carbon Cycle Using Metal Stable Isotopes: Opportunities and Challenges

open access: yesEngineering, 2019
The subduction of marine carbonates and carbonated oceanic crust to the Earth’s interior and the return of recycled carbon to the surface via volcanism may play a pivotal role in governing Earth’s atmosphere, climate, and biosphere over geologic time ...

Confinement Effect and Hydrogen Species Modulation toward Enhanced Electrochemical CO2 Reduction to Ethanol

open access: yesResearch
The protonation process of adsorbed *CO intermediates has been widely recognized as a critical determinant governing product selectivity in electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction (eCO2RR). However, the active hydrogen species and mechanism of

Do oxygen isotope values in collagen reflect the ecology and physiology of neotropical mammals?

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2015
Stable isotope data provide insight into the foraging ecology of animals. Traditionally, carbon and nitrogen isotope values have been used to infer dietary and habitat preferences.
