Portable X‐Ray Fluorescence in the Assessment of Zinc Along Grizzly Bear Hair
ABSTRACT As a biomarker of past uptake of zinc, hair presents an interesting option since its growth can provide a stored record over time. This study investigates the distribution of zinc in hairs gathered from a series of grizzly bears ( Ursus arctos horribilis ).

Chemostratigraphy in southern Ontario by pXRF spectrometry
For groundwater studies, the collection of sediment geochemistry is often beyond the scope, and budget of many programs, and is generally not included as part of routine data collection. Portable x-ray fluorescence spectrometer (pXRF) has proven to be a successful tool to characterize the chemostratigraphy of glacial derived materials collected from ...

The Influence of Spectral Interferences on Critical Element Determination with Portable X-Ray Fluorescence (pXRF) [PDF]
Field portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) spectrometers are routinely used in mineral resources studies. To date, mineral resources studies have largely focussed on the application of pXRF to the exploration for deposits of base and precious metals.

Distinguishing Soil Horizons of Alfisols Using MIR, Vis–NIR, and XRF Spectra
ABSTRACT We studied horizonation of 150 Alfisols on a research farm in Wisconsin, USA. Most of these Alfisols had developed in loess covering dense glacial till; common horizons were an Ap over a glossic horizon (E/Bt or Bt/E) over a Bt covering the glacial till (2Bt). In addition to field identification, we distinguished the horizons by combining soil
