TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify regional patterns in both δ18O and deuterium excess (D excess), defined as δD − 8δ 18O, and in particular the northward maximum extent of the southwest monsoon over the Tibetan Plateau.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monthly precipitation isoscapes (δ18O) of the United States: Connections with surface temperatures, moisture source conditions, and air mass trajectories
TL;DR: In this article, the average monthly isoscapes were calculated by analyzing 5 consecutive years of precipitation samples collected at 73 collection sites from the United States Network for Isotopes in Precipitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Moisture source temperatures and precipitation δ18O-temperature relationships across the United States
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the extent to which inclusion of monthly moisture source temperature and moisture source locations in the Rayleigh distillation model aid in reproducing the relationships between monthly time series of precipitation isotope (δ 18 O) values and temperature across the contiguous United States.
Glacially Induced Stress Across the Arctic From the Eemian Interglacial to the Present—Implications for Faulting and Methane Seepage
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the evolution in space and time of the glacial stresses induced in the Arctic lithosphere by the North American, Eurasian and Greenland ice sheets during the latest glaciation.
