Within the realm of the newly evolving discipline of environmental
sciences, the stable-isotope methodology is being used to an
ever-increasing extent, especially in the study of the water cycle
and of paleo-climatology. This book introduces the rules of the
game, by reviewing the natural variability of stable isotopes in
the hydrosphere, describing the physico-chemical basis of isotope
fractionation, and applying this knowledge to natural waters as
they move through the hydrologic cycle from the ocean to the
atmosphere, the biosphere and the lithosphere. There is a special
focus on the processes at the surface-atmosphere and
land-biosphere-atmosphere interfaces, since these are the sites of
major changes in isotope composition. In response to the increasing
awareness of our changing climate, a discussion on the global view
of the changing water cycle, in the past and future, winds up the
presentation.
