Triple oxygen isotope distribution in modern mammal teeth and potential geologic applications

Reconstructing water availability in terrestrial ecosystems is key to understanding past climate and landscapes, but there are few proxies for aridity that are available for use at terrestrial sites across the Cenozoic. The isotopic composition of …

A unified clumped isotope thermometer calibration (0.5-1100 °C) using carbonate-based standardization

The potential for carbonate clumped isotope thermometry to independently constrain both the formation temperature of carbonate minerals and fluid oxygen isotope composition allows insight into long-standing questions in the Earth sciences, but …
