- 21 September 2006
Environmental Science
Throughout the year 2001, aerosol samples were collected continuously for 10 to 15 days at the French Antarctic Station Dumont d'Urville (DDU) (66°40' S, l40°0' E, 40 m above mean sea level). The…

Environmental Science, Chemistry
An online method for analysis of the 17O anomaly, using a strain of denitrifiers to convert nitrate to N2O, which decomposes quantitatively to N 2 and O2 in a gold furnace at 800 degrees C, followed by gas chromatographic separation and isotope analysis of O2.

Subsurface tropical Pacific nitrogen isotopic composition of nitrate: Biogeochemical signals and their transport
- P. RafterD. SigmanC. CharlesJ. KaiserG. Haug
- 1 March 2012
Environmental Science
We report measurements of the nitrogen isotopic composition of nitrate (the δ15N of NO3−) across the equatorial Pacific, for zonal transects from 165°E to 95°W and meridional transects across 95° and…
Marine productivity estimates from continuous O2/Ar ratio measurements by membrane inlet mass spectrometry
- J. KaiserM. ReuerBruce A. BarnettM. Bender
- 1 October 2005
Environmental Science
Dissolved oxygen/argon (O2/Ar) ratios in the oceanic mixed layer are indicative of net community production (NCP) because O2 and Ar share similar physical solubility properties, but only O2 is…
Reformulated 17O correction of mass spectrometric stable isotope measurements in carbon dioxide and a critical appraisal of historic ‘absolute’ carbon and oxygen isotope ratios

- 4 February 2009
Environmental Science
A new method for continuous shipboard measurements of O(2)/Ar by equilibrator inlet mass spectrometry (EIMS) is presented and, from these measurements and an appropriate gas exchange parametrization, NCP can be estimated at high spatial and temporal resolution.
Technical note: Consistent calculation of aquatic gross production from oxygen triple isotope measurements

Environmental Science
Abstract. Oxygen triple isotope measurements can be used to calculate aquatic gross oxygen production rates. Past studies have emphasised the appropriate definition of the 17O excess and often used…
Wavelength dependence of isotope fractionation in N 2 O photolysis

- 28 October 2002
Chemistry, Environmental Science
Abstract. In previous reports on isotopic fractionation in the ultraviolet photolysis of nitrous oxide (N2O) only enrichments of heavy isotopes in the remaining N2O fraction have been found. However,…
