A Snapshot on the Buildup of the Stable Water Isotopic Signal in the Upper Snowpack at EastGRIP on the Greenland Ice Sheet

Sonja Wahl

The stable water isotopic composition in firn and ice cores provides valuable information on past climatic conditions. Because of uneven accumulation and post-depositional modifications on local spatial scales up to hundreds of meters, time series derived ...

Hydrogen Peroxide Formation during Ozonation of Olefins and Phenol: Mechanistic Insights from Oxygen Isotope Signatures

Urs von Gunten, Joanna Maria Houska

Mitigation of undesired byproducts from ozonation of dissolved organic matter (DOM) such as aldehydes and ketones is currently hampered by limited knowledge of their precursors and formation pathways. Here, the stable oxygen isotope composition of H2O2 for ...

Rapid grain boundary diffusion in foraminifera tests biases paleotemperature records

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Arthur Adams, Deyanira Graciela Cisneros Lazaro, Lukas Baumgartner, Jinming Guo

The paleoseawater temperature record from the oxygen isotope compositions of fossil foraminifera tests may be biased by up to about 1 degrees C due to grain-boundary diffusion alone, according to isotope exchange experiments on foraminifera tests. The oxyg ...

Assessing sublimation during snow transport and sublimation effects on the isotopic composition of water vapor

Armin Sigmund

Sublimation influences the water storage in snow covers and glaciers, which is important for water use and projections of the sea level rise. Yet, it is challenging to quantify sublimation for large areas or in conditions of snow transport. In-situ measure ...

Characterizing airborne snow metamorphism using stable water isotope measurements in snow and vapor from ring wind tunnel experiments

Michael Lehning, Sonja Wahl, Luca Bianchi, Benjamin Andreas Walter

Drifting-blowing snow events are frequent phenomena in alpine and polar regions with direct effects on the local mass and energy balance that are difficult to quantify. In addition to this immediate impact of the blowing snow cloud the aeolian transport mo ...

Isotope Ratio - Discharge Relationships of Solutes Derived From Weathering Reactions

Paolo Benettin

To date, the vast majority of studies seeking to link discharge to solute concentrations have been based on representations of fluid age distributions in watersheds that are time-invariant. As increasingly detailed spatial and temporal datasets become avai ...

Non-invasive investigation of the morphology and optical properties of the upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea with optical coherence tomography

Anders Meibom, Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby, Sandrine Denise Françoise Bessette, Michael Kühl

The jellyfish Cassiopea largely cover their carbon demand via photosynthates produced by microalgal endosymbionts, but how holobiont morphology and tissue optical properties affect the light microclimate and symbiont photosynthesis in Cassiopea remain unex ...

The role of isotope mass and transport for H-mode access in tritium containing plasmas at JET with ITER-like wall

Haomin Sun, Henri Weisen, Javier García Hernández, Marco Wischmeier, Nicola Vianello, Mikhail Maslov

The required heating power, P-LH, to access the high confinement regime (H-mode) in tritium containing plasmas is investigated in JET with ITER-like wall at a toroidal magnetic field of B-t = 1.8 T and a plasma current of I-p = 1.7 MA. PLH, also referred t ...

Oxygen diffusion in garnet: Experimental calibration and implications for timescales of metamorphic processes and retention of primary O isotopic signatures

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig

Knowledge of oxygen diffusion in garnet is crucial for a correct interpretation of oxygen isotope signatures in natural samples. A series of experiments was undertaken to determine the diffusivity of oxygen in garnet, which remains poorly constrained. The ...

Persistence of the isotopic signature of pentavalent uranium in magnetite

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Barbora Bártová, Zezhen Pan

Uranium isotopic signatures can be harnessed to monitor the reductive remediation of subsurface contamination or to reconstruct paleo-redox environments. However, the mechanistic underpinnings of the isotope fractionation associated with U reduction remain ...
