Century-to-millennial scale climatic variability in Lake Malawi revealed by isotope records. [PDF]
Diatom-based oxygen isotope data (δ18Odiatom) from Lake Malawi show multi-centennial scale wetâ dry intervals spaced approximately every 2.3 ka throughout a 25 ka sequence.

Examination of the parameters controlling the triple oxygen isotope composition of grass leaf water and phytoliths at a Mediterranean site: a model–data approach [PDF]
Triple oxygen isotopes (17O-excess) of water are useful to trace evaporation at the soil–plant–atmosphere interface. The 17O-excess of plant silica, i.e., phytoliths, inherited from leaf water, was previously calibrated in growth chambers as a proxy of ...

Oxygen isotope ecology of recent planktic foraminifera at the central Walvis Ridge (SE Atlantic) [PDF]
Above the Walvis Ridge, in the SE Atlantic Ocean, we collected living plantkic foraminifera from the upper water column using depth stratified plantkon tows. The oxygen isotope composition (

Stable oxygen and carbon isotope compositional fields for skeletal and diagenetic components in New Zealand Cenozoic nontropical carbonate sediments and limestones: A synthesis and review [PDF]
The stable oxygen isotope composition (δ18O) of a precipitated carbonate depends mainly on the isotope composition, salinity, and temperature of the host fluid, whereas the stable carbon isotope composition (δ13C) reflects the source of CO2 for ...

Application of Modified DDARP Method for Purification of Barite in Natural Water Samples
BACKGROUND Diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) dissolution and reprecipitation (DDARP) method is used frequently to eliminate encapsulated nitrate during barite precipitation. However, the effect of DDARP on barite precipitated from different kinds

The Precambrian marine carbonate isotope database: version 1.1. [PDF]
We present a compilation of strontium, carbon, and oxygen isotope compositions of roughly 10,000 marine carbonate rocks of Archean - Ordovician age (3800 Ma – 450 Ma).
