A score of bioavailable strontium isotope archaeology in China: Retrospective and prospective
Bioavailable strontium isotope analysis was proposed for prehistoric human ecology almost 40 years ago and rapidly became one of the most important tools to trace past migratory behaviours.

Evidence of hydrological control of Sr behavior in stream water (Strengbach catchment, Vosges mountains, France) [PDF]
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
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 ...

Sr-isotope analysis of speleothems by LA-MC-ICP-MS: High temporal resolution and fast data acquisition [PDF]
Speleothems are well established climate archives. A wide array of geochemical proxies, including stable isotopes and trace elements are present within speleothems to reconstruct past climate variability.

Variation of strontium isotopes in tektites [PDF]
Abstract The rubidium, strontium, and strontium isotopic compositions have been determined in tektites from Indo-China, Philippine Islands, Java, Australia, Texas, Georgia, Massachusetts and Czechoslovakia. The range of Sr 87 Sr 86 ratios in 18 tektites is from 0.7121 to 0.7223, indicating the results of Pinson et al.

Seaweed against strontium and preussian blue against cesium
The fact that alginates bind strontium and cyanates bind cesium and are capable of removing these elements from living organisms is scientifically verified. Zeolites offer another possibility for exchange of these ions.

Strontium isotopes as an indicator of human migration – easy questions, difficult answers
Isotope analyses of bones and teeth allow us to study phenomena which occurred in the history of human species and which are difficult to capture by traditional anthropological methods. Measuring oxygen, nitrogen and carbon isotope levels in the skeleton

Silver Linings at the Dawn of a “Golden Age”
Nearly four decades after the first applications of strontium isotope analyses in archaeology and paleoecology research, it could be said that we are entering a “Golden Age”.
