Carbon isotope anomaly in the major plant C-1 pool and its global biogeochemical implications [PDF]
We report that the most abundant C-1 units of terrestrial plants, the methoxyl groups of pectin and lignin, have a unique carbon isotope signature exceptionally depleted in C-13.

Stable isotopes in stratospheric carbon monoxide [PDF]
The isotopes of an element provide a wealth of information for the chemistry and transport of trace gases in the atmosphere. In this work, the isotope composition of carbon and oxygen in carbon monoxide is used to gain new insights on transport and chemistry related to methane oxidation in the stratosphere.

Biogeochemistry of Stable Carbon Isotopes [PDF]
In 1947, in his classical paper on the thermodynamic properties of isotopic substances, H. C. Urey [1] laid the foundation of modern isotope geochemistry. At the same time, A. O. Nier [2] designed a new mass spectrometer which allowed the measurement of small differences in isotope abundance ratios. A modification in the Nier-type mass spectrometer and

The geochemical and isotopic carbon cycle in an urban pond in the City of Wroclaw
The aim of this study was a recognition of the carbon cycle in a small anthropogenic reservoir located in Wrocław (SW Poland). The research investigated the geochemical processes and isotopic interactions in the water column as well as those between the ...

We have known about the processes of methanogenesis and methanotrophy for over 100 years, since the days of Winogradsky, yet their contributions to the carbon cycle were deemed to be of negligible importance for the majority of that period. It is only in

Environmental controls on the stable isotopic composition of Mercenaria mercenaria: Potential application to paleoenvironmental studies [PDF]
We have investigated the environmental controls of seasonally resolved records of oxygen and carbon isotopes of modern Mercenaria mercenaria bivalves collected live from five coastal sites along the east coast of North America.

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.
