Oxygen isotope techniques

Ann McNichol is a Research Specialist at the National Ocean Sciences Accelerator Mass Spectrometry Facility at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, which produces high-precision 14C measurements from small-volume samples. Dr. McNichol s research interests include the study and use of carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen isotope techniques to quantify bio-geochemical processes, the study of the fate of organic matter (both natu-... [Pg.128]

We can predict the oxygen and carbon isotopic compositions of the dolomite produced by this reaction path, using the techniques described in Chapter 19. Figure 25.4 shows the compositions of calcite and dolomite cements in the Lyons, as determined by Levandowski et al. (1973). The calcite and dolomite show broad ranges in oxygen isotopic content. The dolomite, however, spans a much narrower range in carbon isotopic composition than does the calcite. [Pg.383]

Oxygen isotopes were analyzed using the technique of Clayton and Mayeda (69). Data are presented using the standard 6 notation relative to Standard Mean Ocean Water (SMOW). [Pg.299]

Dual isotope technique The technique uses two heavy isotopes, oxygen ( 0) and deuterium ( H). Water that contains these isotopes is prepared. The subject drinks a glass of this water, as part of a normal meal. Once equilibrated with body water, which occurs quickly, the content of in the water falls due to the production of unlabelled water from the oxidation of fuels. Similarly, the 02 content in the water also falls but the rate is greater than that of since the 02 equilibrates not only with the oxygen atoms in water but also with those in carbon dioxide. An equihbrium between water and carbon dioxide is rapidly estabhshed due to the activity of the enzyme carbonate dehydratase. [Pg.23]

In addition to oxygen isotopes, the volatile elements H, C, N, and S also show extremely large variations in isotope composition in meteorites. In recent years, most investigations have concentrated on the analyses of individual components with more and more sophisticated analytical techniques. [Pg.96]

With the improvement of analytical techniques, it is now possible to measure oxygen isotopic profiles in minerals. By analogy to the concepts of bulk mineral closure temperature versus closure temperature at every point in the interior of a mineral for the case of thermochronology, future theoretical development will need to clarify the concepts and meanings of Tc and Tae based on interior isotopic or elemental compositions of two contacting minerals. Furthermore, the principles of the above discussion may also be applied to elemental exchange reactions, such as Fe-Mg exchange between minerals. [Pg.547]

Isotopes of oxygen and hydrogen are useful tracers of water sources because they are constituents of the water molecule itself and because they are conservative in aquifers at near-surface temperatures. Isotopic techniques take advantage of the fact that lakes and their surrounding ground-water systems are usually isotopically distinct. Applications of stable isotopes for the study of lakes were first described by Dincer (10) and were discussed in several subsequent review articles (11-14). Most applications of isotopic techniques to lake systems are designed for the determination of water balances, nutrient-uptake studies, and paleotemperature reconstructions. [Pg.75]
