Strontium Isotope as Tracers of Groundwater Contamination [PDF]
Procedia Earth and Planetary Science, 2017 Groundwater flowing under a municipal solid waste landfill has been studied to identify potential contamination phenomenon and to test strontium isotopic composition as a natural tracer of contamination. The study was carried on in June 2014 in central Italy.

The determination of the isotopic composition of strontium
International Journal of Mass Spectrometry, 2022 If the process of instrumental isotopic fractionation in thermal-ionization mass spectrometry is modeled in terms of Rayleigh's distillation, the values of the isotopic ratios of strontium in a sample material can be calculated by distributions of measured ratios obtained by instrumental runs in which the process of isotopic fractionation in the sample

Chemostratigraphy of Neoproterozoic carbonates: implications for 'blind dating' [PDF]
, 2001 The delta C-13(carb) and Sr-87/Sr-86 secular variations in Neoproteozoic seawater have been used for the purpose of 'isotope stratigraphy' but there are a number of problems that can preclude its routine use.

The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 229-246., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Evidence of hydrological control of Sr behavior in stream water (Strengbach catchment, Vosges mountains, France) [PDF]
, 2002 Strontium and particularly 87Sr/86Sr ratios in stream water have often been used to calculate weathering rates in catchments. Nevertheless, in the literature, discharge variation effects on the geochemical behavior of Sr are often omitted or considered ...

Machine-learning-based automated loading of strontium isotopes into magneto-optical trap
AIP Advances, 2023 We implemented optimization techniques of machine learning (ML) to obtain the mutually exclusive sets of experimental parameters that maximize the number of strontium atoms of different isotopes (88Sr, 86Sr, and 87Sr) in a magneto-optical trap (MOT ...

Reconstructing Pleistocene Australian herbivore megafauna diet using calcium and strontium isotopes
Royal Society Open Science, 2023 Isotopes in fossil tooth enamel provide robust tools for reconstructing food webs, which have been understudied in Australian megafauna. To delineate the isotopic composition of primary consumers and understand dietary behaviour at the base of the food ...
