Abstract:

The Antarctic continent has traditionally been a successful searching ground for meteoritic material due to its cold and dry climate. Meteorites, and their microscopic analogues micrometeorites, were originally sampled from Antarctic ice and snow. Recently, however, a large collection of micrometeorites was discovered in sedimentary traps and moraine deposits from the Transantarctic Mountains, where extraterrestrial dust particles have accumulated for a prolonged time span (ca. 3–4 Ma). Micrometeorites (or ‘cosmic dust’) show unique chemical and isotopic signatures, which originate from a larg

Abstract:

Isotopic analyses of bone phosphate oxygen from a modern alligator, ostrich, and elephant have provided a means for examining diagenesis and thermoregulatory strategy within the dinosaur Acrocanthosaurus atokensis. The Acrocanthosaurus specimen is assumed to retain an original isotopic signature, based on a lack of linear correlation between δ18Ophosphate and structural δ18Ocarbonate, equal standard deviations between δ18Ophosphate values for spongy and compact bone, and a significant difference between δ18Ophosphate and cement δ18Ocarbonate.

Abstract:

Nitrate is a common groundwater contaminant. Due to adverse health effects, waters above the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) of 10 mg NO3-N/L or 0.71 mmols/L, are banned from domestic consumption by the EPA. Studies have measured elevated nitrate concentrations in arid land soils and groundwater around the world. These elevated concentrations could be detrimental to the environment and to human health. Thus, it is important to consider the different sources and processes affecting nitrate concentrations Here, a novel triple isotope system approach was employed, coupling Î´17O with Î´18O and Î´

Abstract:

Groundwater and surface water samples were taken at 14 locations at a lowland rainforest site (La Selva Biological Station) in Costa Rica for the analysis of DIC, DOC, 14C, 13C, 36Cl, 18O, and other geochemical parameters. The data are consistent with the mixing of two endmember groundwaters. One is a local water having low Cl concentrations (<0.07 mM), low DIC (<3.0 mM), high 14C (>100 pmc), δ13C between -22? and -26?, and highly variable 36Cl/Cl ratios. This chemistry is consistent with locally recharged shallow groundwaters having short residence times in which the DIC originates from plant

Abstract:

As lower microwave frequency bands become saturated with users, there is a motivation for the research of applications that utilize higher frequencies, especially the 60 GHz band. This band is plagued with high atmospheric absorption due to atmospheric oxygen, but has a lot of bandwidth, which makes it desirable for multi-media applications. Recently, research of wideband digital links within the 60 GHz band gained the interest of the wireless communication industry when the FCC announced that a license is not required for a wideband digital signal in this band. Previous research on 60 GHz s

Abstract:

The geochemical analysis of bioapatite in vertebrate skeletal tissues is an important tool used to obtain ecological information from fossil animals. An important consideration when conducting stable isotope and trace element analyses is obtaining biogenic information that has been unaffected by diagenetic processes. A two-step pretreatment procedure is commonly used remove diagenetically altered material by removing organic material, via an oxidation reaction with H2O2 or NaOCl, and secondary carbonate, via dissolution in dilute acetic acid, from bioapatite.

Numerous studies have analyzed isotopic variation of meteoric and dripwater in karst environments for paleoclimate reconstructions or aquifer recharge capacity.

Underlying all applications of sulfur isotope analyses is our understanding of isotope systematics. This dissertation tests some fundamental assumptions and assertions, drawn from equilibrium theory and a diverse body of empirical work on biochemical kinetics, as applied to the multiple sulfur isotope systematics of microbial sulfate reduction.

This allows for a mechanistic, physically consistent interpretation of geological and biological sulfur isotope records. The goal of my work here i

Abstract:

Cellulose-inferred lake water oxygen-isotope records were obtained from five throughflow lakes situated along a north-south transect across Fennoscandia to help develop a better picture of Holocene changes in atmospheric circulation in the region. This research addresses prior evidence for the existence of non-temperature-dependent shifts in d18O of precipitation in the early Holocene attributed to changes in atmospheric circulation. The validity of this hypothesis is tested through the development of oxygen-isotope records from lake sediments and their interpretation in the context of inde

Abstract:

Metamorphism is the dominant transformation mechanism of rocks in most of the Earth’s lithosphere and it is driven by variations in temperature, pressure, deformation and influx of chemically active fluids. Fluids play a crucial role in affecting many physical and chemical processes. It is therefore essential to unravel their nature and source(s) and the extent of their infiltration to fully understand crustal evolution. Oxygen isotopes are one of the most robust tools used to obtain such information. Because fluid-rock interactions can occur at different stages of metamorphism, metamorphic ro
