The increase of d18O values in the rock record (where older samples have lower d18O values than modern) has been attributed to changing ocean temperature, an increase in the d18O value of the ocean water, or diagenesis obscuring paleoenvironmental information. Unlike conventional d18O analysis where the formation water’s isotopic value ...
The traditional motivation behind studying the dynamics of turbulent wind flow in vegetation canopies has been to understand the nature of mass, momentum, and energy exchange between the land surface and the atmosphere. The nature of this interaction determines the microclimate in a forest environment where plants exchange carbon and ...
