Topic List: To be modified based on student interest • Background and Theory • Fractionation • Tracing the hydrologic cycle • Isotope effects • Paleothermometry • Rock-water interaction • Carbon Isotopes • Strontium • Cosmogenic • Sulfur • Nitrogen
Hydrogen Isotopes • Example • 1H: Protium, no neutrons, mass = 1 amu; stable • 2H: Deuterium – extra neutron, mass = 2 amu; stable • 3H: Tritium – two extra neutrons, mass = 3 amu, radioactive t1/2 = 12.3 yr
