Using ocean models to predict spatial and temporal variation in marine carbon isotopes

open access: yes, 2017
Natural-abundance stable isotope ratios provide a wealth of ecological information relating to food web structure, trophic level, and location. The correct interpretation of stable isotope data requires an understanding of spatial and temporal variation ...

An observational constraint on stomatal function in forests: evaluating coupled carbon and water vapor exchange with carbon isotopes in the Community Land Model (CLM4.5)

open access: yes, 2016
. Land surface models are useful tools to quantify contemporary and future climate impact on terrestrial carbon cycle processes, provided they can be appropriately constrained and tested with observations.

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.

Terrestrial and fluvial carbon fluxes in a tropical watershed: Nyong basin, Cameroon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The Nyong watershed, with an area of 27 800 km2 and a mean annual discharge of 390 m3 s−1, is the second largest river in Cameroon. The Nyong watershed serves as an outstanding study area for the examination of carbon fluxes in humid tropical ...

Stable isotope analysis provides new information on winter habitat use of declining avian migrants that is relevant to their conservation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Winter habitat use and the magnitude of migratory connectivity are important parameters when assessing drivers of the marked declines in avian migrants. Such information is unavailable for most species.

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 ...

Isotope sample preparation of diatoms for paleoenvironmental research.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Isotopes in diatoms are increasingly used in palaeoenvironmental studies in both lacustrine and marine settings, enabling the reconstruction of a range of variables including temperature, precipitation, salinity, glacial discharge, carbon dynamics and ...

Carbon isotopes of dissolved inorganic carbon reflect utilization of different carbon sources by microbial communities in two limestone aquifer assemblages

open access: yes, 2016
Isotopes of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) are used to indicate both transit times and biogeochemical evolution of groundwaters. These signals can be complicated in carbonate aquifers, as both abiotic (i.e.

Carbon Isotopic Measurements of Nanotubes to Differentiate Carbon Sources [PDF]

open access: yesACS 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.

Tree growth acceleration and expansion of alpine forests: The synergistic effect of atmospheric and edaphic change. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Many forest ecosystems have experienced recent declines in productivity; however, in some alpine regions, tree growth and forest expansion are increasing at marked rates.
