A century and a half precipitation oxygen isoscape for China generated using data fusion and bias correction [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Data, 2023
The precipitation oxygen isotopic composition is a useful environmental tracer for climatic and hydrological studies. However, accurate and high-resolution precipitation oxygen isoscapes are currently lacking in China.

Sampling Plants and Malacofauna in 87Sr/86Sr Bioavailability Studies: Implications for Isoscape Mapping and Reconstructing of Past Mobility Patterns

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Establishing strontium isotope (87Sr/86Sr) geographical variability is a key component of any study that seeks to utilize strontium isotopes as tracers of provenance or mobility.

Regional Assessment of Recharge Elevation of Tap Water Sources Using the Isoscape Approach

open access: yesMountain Research and Development, 2017
The importance of mountains as “natural water towers” has been quantified by comparing water budgets in upstream (mountain) and downstream (lowland) areas, but their importance for tap water supplies has not been assessed.

Drinking Locally: A Water 87Sr/86Sr Isoscape for Geolocation of Archeological Samples in the Peruvian Andes

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The analysis of 87Sr/86Sr has become a robust tool for identifying non-local individuals at archeological sites. The 87Sr/86Sr in human bioapatite reflects the geological signature of food and water consumed during tissue development.

A gulf-wide synoptic isoscape of zooplankton isotope ratios reveals the importance of nitrogen fixation in supporting secondary production in the central Gulf of Mexico

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
A synoptic gulf-wide isoscape of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) in the Gulf of Mexico based on mesozooplankton (335-1000 um) was used as a proxy for the isotopic baseline and for calculating regional contributions of dissolved inorganic nitrogen ...

Stable hydrogen isotope in tropical bat hair and the Asian isoscape: A dataset to advance migration research [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Data
Stable hydrogen isotope analysis is an emerging technique in ecological studies, provides an approach to understand animal migration, and provides locality information for wildlife forensics.

A bioavailable 87Sr/86Sr isoscape of Mongolia: Implications for the reconstruction of past human and animal mobility. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Understanding past human and animal mobility is essential for reconstructing the social and cultural dynamics of ancient societies. Strontium isotope analysis (87Sr/86Sr) offers a powerful tool to investigate provenance and movement.

Strontium isoscape of sub-Saharan Africa allows tracing origins of victims of the transatlantic slave trade [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Strontium isotope (87Sr/86Sr) analysis with reference to strontium isotope landscapes (Sr isoscapes) allows reconstructing mobility and migration in archaeology, ecology, and forensics.

A nitrogen isoscape of phytoplankton in the western North Pacific created with a marine nitrogen isotope model

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
The nitrogen isotopic composition (δ15N) of phytoplankton varies substantially in the ocean reflecting biogeochemical processes such as N2 fixation, denitrification, and nitrate assimilation by phytoplankton.

A 3-D groundwater isoscape of the contiguous USA for forensic and water resource science.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
A wide range of hydrological, ecological, environmental, and forensic science applications rely on predictive "isoscape" maps to provide estimates of the hydrogen or oxygen isotopic compositions of environmental water sources.
