The lithium isotope system is increasingly being applied to a variety of Earth science studies,
as the burgeoning literature attests; over 180 papers have been published in the last twelve …

We report Li isotope composition (δ 7 Li) of river-borne dissolved and solid material in the
largest River system on Earth, the Amazon River basin, to characterize Li isotope …

The biennial review of atomic-weight determinations and other cognate data has resulted in
changes for the standard atomic weights of five elements. The atomic weight of bromine has …

The isotopic systems of boron and magnesium are increasingly being used as proxies for a
number of environmental variables and processes. The isotopic composition of seawater for …

Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

At the Earth's surface, calcium (Ca) is a critical element at a variety of scales: it is soluble in
natural waters, a biological nutrient, and a major constituent of the dominant mineral sink for …

This work presents the systematic investigation of K contents and stable K isotopic
compositions of surface waters, groundwater, wastewaters, suspended particles, bed …

This study focuses on the chemical and Sr isotopic compositions of the dissolved load of the
rivers of the Changjiang Basin, one of the largest riverine systems in the world. Water …

Magnesium isotopic compositions of a profile through saprolites developed on a diabase
dike from South Carolina have been measured in order to study the behavior of Mg isotopes …
