Constraints on the early delivery and fractionation of Earth's major volatiles from C/H, C/N, and C/S ratios
MM Hirschmann - American Mineralogist, 2016 - degruyter.com
Earth's inventory of principle volatiles C, H, N, and S is a legacy of its early stages of
accretion and differentiation. Elemental ratios (C/H, C/N, C/S) are powerful tools for …
