At first, Professor Glen Jackson, who teaches forensic and investigative science at West Virginia University, had a hard time explaining to me what isotopes are. He told me he is used to speaking with ...

Isotope analysis, and in particular compound‐specific stable isotope analysis (CSIA), has emerged as an indispensable tool in the investigation of environmental biodegradation. By measuring the subtle ...

Archaeologists at UC Santa Cruz used predictive modeling to map strontium isotope ratios across all of modern-day Angola, a region in Southwest Africa that was once a major hub for the transatlantic ...

Oxygen isotopes data enable researchers to look far back into the geologic past and reconstruct the climate of the past. In doing so, they consider several factors such as ocean temperature and ice ...

For the next five years, the University of Wyoming’s Stable Isotope Facility (SIF) will be the go-to laboratory to analyze National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) soil samples from across the ...

Isotopic analysis primarily involves the separation of isotopes based on the significant differences in mass. The method is effective for identifying the isotopic signature within the inorganic and ...

The city of Pompeii was buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79. Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have now reconstructed the city's water supply system based on ...

Shaun Adams receives funding from the Australian Research Council. Mark Collard receives funding from the Canada Research Chairs Program, the Canada Foundation for Innovation, the British Columbia ...

Observations of nearby red dwarf stars reveal rare carbon and oxygen isotopes, offering direct evidence of stellar nucleosynthesis and the chemical evolution of the Milky Way.
