6 Measurement Digestion and concentration Quantification using radiation counting of alpha, beta, and gamma radiation Quantification using ICPMS Have well defined standards STABLE ISOTOPES Hydrogen 1 1H, 2 1Deuterium ( 3 1Tritium 12.3 yrs) Carbon C, 13 C ( 14 C radioactive) Nitrogen N, 15 N Oxygen O, 17 O, 18 O Sulfur S, 33 S, 34 S, 36 S Table 2.6 commonly used stable isotopes Different isotopes of an element have different abundance influencing what we measure 6
7 So What? the same atomic # means that isotopes have basically the same properties the different atomic weights of isotopes means that they have just slightly different properties (e.g. physical characteristics, rates of chemical reactions) e.g. 1 H 2 16 O has a boiling point of 100 C 2 H 2 16 O has a boiling point of C Implications the slightly different properties of the isotopes result in: (1) a temperature dependence for many reactions (2) chemical isotope fractionation (a change in isotopic composition) between products and reactants, for an incomplete reaction (3) differentiation of isotopic composition between elemental reservoirs with different properties (physical, chemical, biological) (4) Biological fractionation 7
8 Applications 1. Temperature (e.g. paleoclimate, ore deposits, petrology) 2. Processes (e.g. vaporization, oxidation/reduction, photosynthesis, trophic transfer) 3. Sources (e.g. groundwater contaminants, avian migration, forensic geochemistry) 4. Tracers (natural and artificially-enriched compounds Weiss et al. 2008/Ehleringer et al 2015 paper/albararede 2015, Measurement stable and radiogenic isotopes Interested in comparing variation not actual concentrations -Bend a beam of charged ions in a magnetic field -Separate isotopes that then go to faraday cup collectors -Each cup measures that isotope simulateously-get a ratio -Switch between sample and standard to compare 8
9 Reporting 18 R O sample R R standard standard 13 C O O sample O O O O 3 standard C C sample C C C C standard standard standard 10 Ratio + more of the heavy isotope in the sample/ratio more of the lighter isotope in the sample 3 COMMONLY USED STANDARDS Oxygen - standard mean ocean water (SMOW). Hydrogen -SMOW Carbon - calcite from a belemnite fossil from the Peedee Formation in South Carolina (PDB). Sometimes PDB is also used for carbonate oxygen. Nitrogen - atmospheric N 2. Sulfur - sulfur in troilite (FeS) of the Canyon Diablo Meteorite from Meteor Crater, Arizona (CDT). Relatively light elements so mass differences easy to measure EST article is on using heavy isotopes 9
10 From Clark and Fritz (1997) ISOTOPE FRACTIONATION Isotope fractionation: the development of differences in isotopic composition as a result of physical and chemical processes. The degree of fractionation depends on the relative weights of the isotopes. Commonly fractionated: H, C, N, O, S Somewhat fractionated: Si, Fe, Cl As our methods get better we can measure heavy isotope fractionation Mass dependent and independent fractionation 10
11 Factors causing fractionation Phase changes lighter isotope greater vibrational frequency due to less mass VF=1/(mass) 1/2 bonds more easily broken with lighter The Rule of Bigeleisen (1965) - The heavy isotope goes preferentially into the compound with the strongest bonds Heavier goes into compound with higher oxidation state Lighter isotopes form weaker bonds in compounds, react faster. concentrated in the products. At high temperatures, the equilibrium constant for isotopic exchange tends towards unity, i.e., because small differences in mass are less important when all molecules have very high kinetic and vibrational energies. 11
12 THE ISOTOPE FRACTIONATION FACTOR The isotope fractionation factor is defined as: a Ra b Rb where R a = the ratio of heavy to light isotope in phase a; R b = the ratio of heavy to light isotope in phase b. For example, consider: H 2 O(l) H 2 O(v) at 25 C l Rl O O v( O) R O O v l v Temperature dependence-example from Faure 12
13 CO 2 air- ocean H 2 O CO2 H 2O O g g 18O l O O O l 1.04 CO2 (g) + H2O (l) H2 CO3 CO2 (g) + H2O (l) At 25 o C δ 18 O CO2 in air is 40 While that of ocean is 0 13
14 Because both H and O occur together in water, δ 18 O and δd are highly correlated in meteoric water, yielding the meteoric water line Meteroric water is derived from atmospheric water vapor Figure 1.

16 Seasonal variations Climatic variations Ice core data Use relationships established for δ 18 O and temperature of specific locations δ 18 O=0.695Tannual δ 18 O=0.33Tmonthly decrease for 1.7 o C decrease Fractionation driven by ocean temperature- colder more fractionation and 18O likely to remain in the ocean Steen Larsen paper JGR v

Complicated from Hoefs Stable isotope geochemistry 6 th ed O2 in the air produced by photosynthesis with fractionation Also if there was equilibrium between atmospheric oxygen and water on the surface at 25 o C the atmosphere would be + 6 Idea is that the more positive value is due to plants and organically bound C retaining 16O during photosynthesis 18
19 From Clark and Fritz 1997 C on surface of the earth δ 13 C mantle= earth total = -5 If on the surface ¼ buried as carbon with value -28 ¾ left in ocean in equilibrium with ocean carbonates 0 See evidence of great oxidation event at 2.4 by prior to this carbonates in the ocean have slightly positive δ 13 C Atmosphere C in CO2 is -7.7 Note this is not up to date Coal is -27 Attribute value to being less than -5 due to fossil fuel input with ½ being dissolved in ocean and assimilated by plants 19

24 SULFUR ISOTOPES The stable sulfur isotopes are: 32 S, 33 S, 34 S, 35 S 34 S S S sample S S S S standard standard 10 The most important cause of S-isotope fractionation is the reduction of sulfate by anaerobic bacteria 2H+ + SO42-+ 2(CH2O) 2CO2+ H2S + 2 H2O Reduction of 32 S is faster than 34S 3 SULFIDE/SULFATE FRACTIONATION The extent of fractionation of S-isotopes between sulfate and sulfide by biological processes depends on: 1) The rate of metabolism by bacteria. 2) Composition and abundance of food supply. 3) Size of sulfate reservoir. 4) Temperature. 5) The rate of removal of H 2 S. 24
25 From Clark and Fritz (1997) Archean and Early Proterozoic (to about 2 by ago) No fractionation- H2S SO4 Sulfur isotopes and oxygenation of the atmosphere Sulfur isotope signature important for understanding presence of abundant O in the atmosphere δ34s sulfide sulfate 0 no biogenic fractionation 3.8 to 2.7 by begin to see fractionation with negative values in sulfide minerals-not uniform-anaerobic /aerobic basins basins ~ 2 by consistent fractionation in marine sediments Mass independent versus dependent fractionation Dependent chemical and physical processes operating to separate Independent-photochemical or electron spin driven MIF of S prior to 2.4 by suggests S in atmosphere being impacted by UV light 25
