Carbonate minerals contain stable isotopes of carbon and oxygen with different masses
whose abundances and bond arrangement are governed by thermodynamics. The clumped …

Reconstructing the thermal history of minerals and fluids in continental environments is a
cornerstone of tectonics research. Paleotemperature constraints from carbonate clumped …

Very little is known about Neanderthal cultures, particularly early ones. Other than lithic
implements and exceptional bone tools, very few artefacts have been preserved. While …

The climatic controls on the stable carbon isotopic composition (δ 13 C) of speleothem
carbonate are less often discussed in the scientific literature in contrast to the frequently …

Surface temperature is a fundamental parameter of Earth's climate. Its evolution through time
is commonly reconstructed using the oxygen isotope and the clumped isotope compositions …

Conventional carbonate–water oxygen isotope thermometry and the more recently
developed clumped isotope thermometer have been widely used for the reconstruction of …

The carbonate clumped isotope thermometer is a powerful tool in paleoclimate research,
because it constrains carbonate formation temperature based on the extent of 13 C and 18 …

The oxygen isotope composition of speleothems is an important proxy of continental
paleoenvironments, because of its sensitivity to variations in cave temperature and drip …

Stable isotope records from speleothems provide information on past climate changes, most
particularly information that can be used to reconstruct past changes in precipitation and …

Terrestrial records of past climatic conditions, such as lake sediments and speleothems,
provide data of great importance for understanding environmental changes. However, unlike …
