Isoscapes
Understanding movement, pattern, and process on Earth through isotope mapping
Springer-Verlag 2009.11
350 pp.(H)
ISBN 90-481-3353-X
10,600円
Contents
1. Gathering and using spatially explicit isotope data/ 2. Isotope mapping: theory and methods/ 3. Multidisciplinary applications of isoscapes/ Index/
* Stable isotope ratio variation in natural systems reflects the dynamics of Earth systems processes and imparts isotope labels to Earth materials. Carbon isotope ratios of atmospheric CO2 record exchange of carbon between the biosphere and the atmosphere; the incredible journeys of migrating monarchs is documented by hydrogen isotopes in their wings; and water carries an isotopic record of its source and history as it traverses the atmosphere and land surface.
* Through these and many other examples, improved understanding of spatio-temporal isotopic variation in Earth systems is leading to innovative new approaches to scientific problem-solving. This volume provides a comprehensive overview of the theory, methods, and applications that are enabling new disciplinary and cross-disciplinary advances through the study of "isoscapes": isotopic landscapes. *

Contents
* This book provides a concise introduction to the rapidly expanding field of calcium and magnesium stable isotope geochemistry. Fundamental concepts of stable isotope geochemistry are presented with respect to applications of Ca and Mg isotopes in low-temperature geochemistry, including biogeochemistry, biomineralisation, paleooceanographic and environmental applications as well as cosmochemistry.
* In particular, the book provides a detailed method part for practical usage, including detailed descriptions of sample digestion techniques, purification (chemical separation), mass spectrometric analyses, fractionation correction and notations. *
