After the discovery that elements were commonly composed of
isotopes, there developed a range of studies of the variability of
isotopic compositions in Earth materials, which was able to add to
our understanding of Earth processes and history.
This collection of chapters from the Treatise on Geochemistry
describes the range of isotopic studies. The chapters are grouped
into the following categories: light stable isotopes, radiogenic
tracers, noble gases and radioactive tracers. The first three
groups depend on mass spectrometric measurements. The section on
radioactive tracers employs both radioactive counting techniques
and the newly developed accelerator mass spectrometric
techniques.
Comprehensive, interdisciplinary and authoritative content
