Abiotic methane on Earth

G Etiope, B Sherwood Lollar - Reviews of Geophysics, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Over the last 30 years, geochemical research has demonstrated that abiotic methane (CH4),
formed by chemical reactions which do not directly involve organic matter, occurs on Earth in …

Paleoclimate reconstruction using carbonate clumped isotope thermometry

JM Eiler - Quaternary Science Reviews, 2011 - Elsevier
Carbonate clumped isotope thermometry is a relatively new paleotemperature proxy based
on measurements of the degree of ordering of 13C and 18O into bonds with each other …

[ΒΙΒΛΙΟ][B] Stable isotope geochemistry

J Hoefs, J Hoefs - 2009 - Springer
The nine editions of Stable Isotope Geochemistry have appeared over a time span of nearly

“Clumped-isotope” geochemistry—The study of naturally-occurring, multiply-substituted isotopologues

JM Eiler - Earth and planetary science letters, 2007 - Elsevier
Clumped isotope geochemistry is concerned with the state of ordering of rare isotopes in
natural materials. That is, it examines the extent to which rare isotopes (D, 13C, 15N, 18O …
