Standard for Reporting Concentrations of Deuterium and Oxygen-18 in Natural Waters.
TLDR
A standard, based on the set of ocean water samples used by Epstein and Mayeda to obtain a reference standard for oxygen-18 data, but defined relative to the National Bureau of Standards isotopic reference water sample, is proposed for reporting both deuterium and oxygen- 18 variations in natural watersrelative to the same water.Abstract:
A standard, based on the set of ocean water samples used by Epstein and Mayeda to obtain a reference standard for oxygen-18 data, but defined relative to the National Bureau of Standards isotopic reference water sample, is proposed for reporting both deuterium and oxygen-18 variations in natural waters relative to the same water. The range of absolute concentrations of both isotopes in meteoric-waters is discussed.read more

Oxygen isotope studies on Jurassic and Cretaceous belemnites from New Zealand and their biogeographic significance
G. R. Stevens,R. N. Clayton +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented transverse sections of New Zealand belemnites (Belemnopsis, Hibolithes, Dimitobelus) obtained from Jurassic strata correlated with Bajocian-Bathovian, Callovian and Kimmeridgian and Lower Tithonian, and Cretaceous strata with Albian-Maastrichtian.

Deuterium content of organic matter.
W.E. Schiegl,J.C. Vogel +1 more
TL;DR: The natural deuterium content of organically bound hydrogen shows systematic variations that depend on the origin of the samples as mentioned in this paper, and the hydrogen of both marine and land plants contains several percent less deutricity than the water on which the plants grew.

Isotopic Variations in Meteoric Waters
TL;DR: The relationship between deuterium and oxygen-18 concentrations in natural meteoric waters from many parts of the world has been determined with a mass spectrometer and shows a linear correlation over the entire range for waters which have not undergone excessive evaporation.

Isotopic standards for carbon and oxygen and correction factors for mass-spectrometric analysis of carbon dioxide
TL;DR: In this paper, Niee's and Solenhofen standards were compared to the Chicago PDB standard for carbon and oxygen isotope ratios, and the correction factors for instrumental effects and for the nature of the mass spectra were derived.

TL;DR: A number of marine water and fresh water samples were examined for the relative O18O16 ratio, and the variation of this ratio was determined to a precision of ± 1% as mentioned in this paper.

Effect of Low Concentrations of Carbon Dioxide on Photosynthesis Rates of Two Races of Oxyria.
TL;DR: Alpine plants of Oxyria digyna have higher apparent photosynthesis rates at various carbon dioxide concentrations than arctic, sea-level plants of the same species, which may be involved in the survival of plants at high elevations.
