PP13E:
Water Isotope Systematics: Improving Modern and Paleoclimate Interpretations II


Session ID#: 10874

Session Description:
Isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen are powerful and unique tools for understanding the earth system.  This includes acting as recorders of past climate change, tracers of hydrologic sources and sinks, and indicators of physical processes in the atmosphere and biosphere.  New techniques that allow for the observation of water isotopes at high temporal frequency and large spatial scales, combined with new theoretical and modeling capabilities, allow for a wide array of new research possibilities.  This session welcomes any paper that focuses on the measurement, modeling, or application of these water isotopes to better understand past and modern climate and hydrology.
