Proposal for International Agreement on Ca Notation resulting from discussion at workshops on stable isotope measurement held in Davos (Goldschmidt 2002) and Nice (EGS-AGU-EUG 2003) [PDF]
A proposal is made to standardise the reporting of Ca isotope data to the δ44Ca/40Ca notation (or δ44Ca/42Ca) and to adopt NIST SRM 915a as the reference ...

Heavy metals and Zn isotope ratios in the snow of the Karabash copper smelting area (Southern Urals, Russia) [PDF]
This work presents the first results of winter fieldworks aimed at the assessment of heavy metal content and Zn isotope composition in the snow cover of a smelting area in South Ural. Twenty one snowpacks were sampled at the end of the winter 2018 in the

Ultra-trace Cu isotope ratio measurements via multi-collector ICP-mass spectrometry using Ga as internal standard : an approach applicable to micro-samples [PDF]
The capabilities of Cu isotope ratio measurements are often restricted by the small volumes of sample available and/or their low Cu concentration. In this work, an analytical approach was developed for performing Cu isotopic analysis via multi-collector ...

Early Cambrian U-Pb zircon age and Hf-isotope data from the Guasayán pluton, Sierras Pampeanas, Argentina: implications for the northwestern boundary of the Pampean arc [PDF]
An Early Cambrian pluton, known as the Guasayán pluton, has been identified in the central area of Sierra de Guasayán, northwestern Argentina. A U?Pb zircon Concordia age of 533 ± 4 Ma was obtained by LA-MC-ICP-MS and represents the first report of ...

Determination of the isotopic composition of tungsten using MC-ICP-MS
The processes of planetary accretion or formation of the Earth and other celestial objects can be studied by using the 182Hf-182W chronometer which requires precise measurements of tungsten isotope ratios. Many comparative measurements for the isotopic composition of tungsten have been performed using either thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS ...

Century-scale trends and seasonality in pH and temperature for shallow zones of the Bering Sea [PDF]
No records exist to evaluate long-term pH dynamics in high-latitude oceans, which have the greatest probability of rapid acidification from anthropogenic CO2 emissions.
