Isotope analysis has emerged as a vital tool in understanding environmental biodegradation processes, particularly in tracking the fate and transformation of pollutants in various ecosystems.

The course will show how radioactive and stable isotopes can be used to understand environmental and geological systems. Topics to be covered include radiometric dating using short and long half-life ...

Cesium isotope analysis, particularly the ratio of 135 Cs to 137 Cs, plays a crucial role in understanding the sources and persistence of radioactive contamination in the environment. This ...

The University of Waterloo Environmental Isotope Laboratory (EIL), a research group within the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, develops and applies isotope technology to the ...

The analysis work was conducted at the Heilongjiang Provincial Key Laboratory of Geographical Environment Monitoring and Spatial Information Services in Cold Regions, Harbin Normal University. Prior ...

Stable isotopes are non-radioactive forms of atoms. Although they do not emit radiation, their unique properties enable them to be used in a broad variety of applications, including water and soil ...

The course comprises lectures covering theoretical concepts on measurement of environmental stable isotopes using laser spectrometry, followed by demonstrations and practical exercises including the ...

These TIMS’ were installed in 2016 and 2022 and are primarily used for high-precision analysis of small sample size neodymium and strontium isotopes on materials spanning the earth and environmental ...

Changes in the isotopes signal whether selenium is being removed and whether the removal is permanent. Shrimpton's study is ...

The ratio of these isotopes to one another indicates the age and chemical composition of the bedrock in a given region of the planet. Living organisms incorporate strontium from the environment ...

Advancements in nuclear medicine drive the isotopes market, especially in medical imaging and therapeutic applications.

The Climate Group uses paleoclimate proxies in coral skeleton (e.g., stable isotopes) to reconstruct the climate of the last 500 years. The group utilizes coral skeletons as recorders of environmental ...
