Detection of Elements at All Three r-process Peaks in the Metal-Poor Star HD 160617

open access: yes, 2012
We report the first detection of elements at all three r-process peaks in the metal-poor halo star HD 160617. These elements include arsenic and selenium, which have not been detected previously in halo stars, and the elements tellurium, osmium, iridium,

Strontium isotope stratigraphy of the Cretaceous

open access: yesGeological Society, London, Special Publications
Abstract This contribution outlines the methodology of strontium isotope stratigraphy, and reviews the information that underpins the calibration curve of marine- 87 Sr/ 86 Sr against time for the Cretaceous.

Trace Element Patterns in Juvenile Wild Chimpanzee Dentitions

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Trace elements are used to infer mammalian early‐life diets, environmental toxins, dispersal patterns, stress histories, and weaning ages. Here, we employ laser ablation‐inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) to reveal elemental patterns in our closest living relatives, chimpanzees.

Wet Season Carbon (δ13C) and Nitrogen (δ15N) Composition of Modern Plants as Isotopic Framework for Agropastoral and Palaeoecological Studies in Northern Greece

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mediterranean wetlands are one of Europe's most vital and endangered biodiversity hotspots. This study determined the carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope values of modern plants to construct an isotopic framework by which to contextualize agropastoral management in and around past wetland ecosystems.

Determination of strontium isotope ratios in plant samples by wet ashing digestion

open access: yesResults in Earth Sciences
Strontium isotope provenance analysis has been widely applied across multiple disciplines, including archaeology, food science, and forensics. The establishment of bioavailable ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr maps, known as isoscapes, which rely on a substantial number of ...

Role of stable isotope analyses in reconstructing past life-histories and the provenancing human skeletal remains: a review

open access: yesAnthropological Review, 2017
This article reviews the present scenario of use of stable isotopes (mainly δ13C, δ15N, δ18O, 87Sr) to trace past life behaviours like breast feeding and weaning practices, the geographic origin, migration history, paleodiet and subsistence patterns of ...

Source of Lake Vostok Cations Constrained with Strontium Isotopes

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2016
Lake Vostok is the largest sub-glacial lake in Antarctica. The primary source of our current knowledge regarding the geochemistry and biology of the lake comes from the analysis of refrozen lake water associated with ice core drilling. Several sources of
