Generally, several isotopes are used to determine dietary sources in migratory species in both marine and terrestrial environments. Of these, sulfur is particularly useful, because its isotope ...

This innovative series provides authoritative, concise overviews of the many novel isotope and elemental systems that can be used as ‘proxies’ or ‘geochemical tracers’ to reconstruct past environments ...

But what about sulfur? Nobody seems to think much about poor sulfur, and when they do it tends to be derogatory. Sulfur puts the stink in rotten eggs, threatens us when it spews from the mouths of ...

Scientists are convinced that our solar system might be hosting a 'Planet X' They specifically searched for stable radio isotopes of sulphur and chlorine-bearing molecules. The researchers found ...

The stable isotope concentrations of a molecular compound or material are presented in ratio form as the molar ratio of the heavy-to-light isotopes. Since this ratio is small, we typically present ...

The questions in this quiz are suitable for GCSE physics students studying structure of the atom, atoms and isotopes and ions. If you struggled with the quiz, don't panic - we've got you!

Using the Canadian Light Source (CLS) at the University of Saskatchewan (USask), Shrimpton analyzed the isotopes of these ...
