Stable Isotope Geochemistry

Stable Isotope Geochemistry is an introduction to the use of stable isotopes in the geosciences. It is subdivided into three parts: theoretical and experimental principles; fractionation processes of light and heavy elements; the natural variations of geologically important reservoirs. Since the application of stable isotopes to earth sciences has grown in the last few years, a new edition appears necessary. Recent progress in analysing the rare isotopes of certain elements for instance allow the distinction between mass-dependent and mass-independent fractionations. Special emphasis has been given to the growing field of "heavy" elements. Many new references have been added, which will enable quick access to recent literature. For students and scientists alike the book will be a primary source of information with regard to how and where stable isotopes can be used to solve geological problems.

  • "Stable Isotope Geochemistry is an introduction to the use of stable isotopes in the geosciences. It is subdivided into three parts: - theoretical and experimental principles; - fractionation mechanisms of light and heavy elements; - the natural variations of geologically important reservoirs. The 5th edition has been revised and extended and now includes a new chapter on palaeoclimatology. Special emphasis has been given to the growing field of "heavy" elements. Many new references have been added, which will enable quick access to recent literature. For students and scientists alike the book will be a primary source of information with regard to how and where stable isotopes can be used to solve geological problems."

  • "Stable Isotope Geochemistry, an introduction to the use of stable isotopes in the Earth Sciences, is subdivided into three parts: theoretical and experimental principles; fractionation mechanisms of light and heavy elements; and natural variations of geologically important reservoirs. Since publication of the 5th edition, substantial progress has been achieved in many subdisciplines of this field. Examples of these recent developments, which made a further revision necessary and are thus incorporated in the 6th edition, are: - Applications of Multicollector- ICP-MS have grown rapidly and now enable investigations of natural isotope variations of a wide range of transition and heavy elements that could not previously be measured with adequate precision; - Precise ion-probe measurements on the micrometer scale allow the detection of the growth and dissolution histories of minerals; - Evidence for mass-independent fractionation in a variety of compounds and elements has increased considerably; - High-precision analysis of the multiple rare isotopes of a specific element permit the distinction of different mass-dependent fractionation mechanisms; - Precise measurements of molecules containing more than one rare isotope indicate non-random distributions of the rare isotopes, which potentially may be utilized as one-mineral thermometers. This updated contemporary overview of the field continues to provide students, researchers, and practitioners with quick access to best practice, as well as the latest research and literature."@en
  • "Stable Isotope Geochemistry is an introduction to the use of stable isotopes in the geosciences. For students and scientists alike the book will be a primary source of information with regard to how and where stable isotopes can be used to solve geological problems. It is subdivided into three parts: i) theoretical and experimental principles, ii) fractionation processes of light and heavy elements, iii) the natural variations of geologically important reservoirs. In the last decade, major advances in multicollector-ICP-mass-spectrometry enable the precise determination of a wide range of transition and heavy elements. Progress in analysing the rare isotopes of certain elements allows the distinction between mass-dependent and mass-independent fractionations. These major advances in analytical techniques make an extended new edition necessary. Special emphasis has been given to the growing field of ℓ́ℓnon-traditionalℓ́ℓ isotope systems. Many new references have been added, which will enable quick access to recent literature."@en
