Radiogenic isotopes: systematics and applications to earth surface processes and chemical stratigraphy
Radiogenic isotopes have wide application to chemical stratigraphy, geochronology, provenance studies, and studies of temporal changes in Earth surface processes. This paper briefly reviews the principles of radiogenic isotope geochemistry and the distribution of a number of elements of interest in the environment, and then uses this information to explore the range of applications to chemical ...
متن کاملTowards Understanding the Paleocean
4 A comparison is made between some of the framework used to discuss paleoceanography 5 and parallel situations in modern physical oceanography. A main inference is that too often 6 the paleo literature aims to rationalize why a particular hypothesis remains appropriate, 7 rather than undertaking to deliberately test that hypothesis. 8

متن کاملCan Historical Names & Fishers’ Knowledge Help to Reconstruct Lakes?
Reconstructing the historical distribution of local Brown trout populations is of great importance. Information of what has actually been lost and its causes is necessary for rebuilding natural lake ecosystems and recreational fisheries, as well as monitoring future changes. Older fishermen and local fishing right owners in 63 privately governed fishery management organizations (FMOs) in Northe...
متن کاملPaleoclimate and Amerindians: evidence from stable isotopes and atmospheric circulation.
Two Amerindian demographic shifts are attributed to climate change in the northwest plains of North America: at approximately 11,000 calendar years before present (yr BP), Amerindian culture apparently split into foothills-mountains vs. plains biomes; and from 8,000-5,000 yr BP, scarce archaeological sites on the open plains suggest emigration during xeric "Altithermal" conditions. We reconstru...
