Natural variations in the isotopic composition of some 50 chemical elements are now being
used in geochemistry for studying transport processes, estimating temperature …

Aragonite and calcite crystals are the fundamental building blocks of calcareous thermal
spring deposits. The diverse array of crystal morphologies found in these deposits, which …

The nine editions of Stable Isotope Geochemistry have appeared over a time span of nearly
50 years. The first edition (1973) appeared as a slim book of 135 pages. Due to the rapid …

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

Understanding the relationships between speleothem stable isotopes (δ13C δ18O) and in
situ cave forcing mechanisms is important to interpreting ancient stalagmite paleoclimate …

A surface reaction kinetic model is developed for predicting Ca isotope fractionation and
metal/Ca ratios of calcite as a function of rate of precipitation from aqueous solution. The …

Many fields of Earth sciences benefit from the knowledge of mineral formation temperatures.
For example, carbonates are extensively used for reconstruction of the Earth's past climatic …

In this paper we present the first detailed geochemical study of the world-famous actively
forming Pamukkale and Karahayit travertines (Denizli Basin, SW-Turkey) and associated …

The oxygen isotope composition of carbonate minerals varies with temperature as well as
other environmental variables. For carbonates that precipitate slowly, under conditions that …

A growing number of materials and environmental settings are studied using the carbonate
clumped isotope (Δ 47) thermometer. The method has been applied in both biogenic and …
