Bias of ostracod stable isotope data caused by drying of sieve residues from water [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Stable isotope analysis of ostracod shells is used routinely for palaeoenvironmental studies of ostracod-bearing records. Sample treatment usually involves the disaggregation of sediments and sieving; before the sieving residues were washed with water ...

Electrode and Microstructure Dependence of Oxygen Diffusion in Ferroelectric Hafnium Zirconium Oxide Thin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Significant nanoscale oxygen diffusion coefficient variations are measured in ferroelectric hafnium zirconium oxide films with grain boundaries and electrode interfaces exhibiting values 104 times larger than the grain cores. Overall coefficients are 10X larger for films prepared with metal nitride electrodes compared to refractory metals. New insights

Quantifying Raindrop Evaporation Deficit in General Circulation Models from Observed and Model Rain Isotope Ratios on the West Coast of India

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Raindrop evaporation is an important sub-cloud process that modifies rainfall amount and rainwater isotope values. Earlier studies have shown that various general circulation models (GCMs) do not incorporate this process properly during the simulation of

Atom Probe Tomography as an Emerging Tool for Understanding Defect‑Driven Mechanisms in HfO2‑Based Ferroelectrics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This Perspective highlights atom probe tomography as a powerful tool for understanding the atomic‐scale defect chemistry in HfO2‐based ferroelectrics. 3D mapping of dopants, point defects, and interface chemistry can provide new insight into defect‐driven mechanisms underpinning the ferroelectricity in the system and guide the design of more reliable ...

Links between environmental conditions and pedogenic phyllosilicates in Podzols in the Tatra Mountains (Poland) – II. Hydrogen and oxygen isotope compositions

open access: yesGeoderma
Stable isotope compositions of pedogenic clay minerals can be used as a paleoclimatic proxy. The underlying fundamental assumption is that pedogenic clays are formed in isotope equilibrium with the environment, which is well-documented for hot and humid ...

Oxygen Isotopes and Volatiles in Martian Meteorite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Oxygen isotopes were measured in mineral separates from martian meteorites using laser fluorination and were found to be remarkably uniform in both δ18O and Δ17O, suggesting that martian magmas did not assimilate aqueously altered crust regardless of any

Sulfur‐Free Ultrahigh‐Refractive‐Index Polymers Enabled by Densely Packed Oxygen‐Bridged Dibenzofuran‐Cardo Architectures

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A new class of sulfur‐free, oxygen‐bridged dibenzofuran‐based polymers is developed for ultrahigh‐refractive‐index applications. The rigid π‐extended architecture and enhanced molecular polarizability enable exceptional optical performance, combining refractive indices up to 1.848 with high Abbe numbers and full visible transparency. This work offers a

On the Use of Biomineral Oxygen Isotope Data to Identify Human Migrants in the Archaeological Record: Intra-Sample Variation, Statistical Methods and Geographical Considerations.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Oxygen isotope analysis of archaeological skeletal remains is an increasingly popular tool to study past human migrations. It is based on the assumption that human body chemistry preserves the δ18O of precipitation in such a way as to be a useful ...

Role of Hydrothermal Fluids in the Formation of the Kamioka Skarn-Type Pb–Zn Deposits, Japan

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
The Kamioka mine, located in Gifu Prefecture in Japan, is famous for the large water Cherenkov detector system, the Super-Kamiokande. The Kamioka skarn-type Pb–Zn deposits are formed in crystalline limestone and are replaced by skarn minerals within the ...

Recent freshening in the Kara sea (Siberia) recorded by stable isotopes in Arctic bivalve shells, [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Oxygen and stable carbon isotope records along the growth direction on shells of the bivalve species Astarte borealis and Serripes groenlandicus reliably record all important aspects of the bottom water hydrography in the shallow southeastern Kara Sea ...
