  • Application of Geochemical Tracers to Fluvial Sediment

    by Gail Mackin, Suzanne M. Orbock Miller, Jerry R. Miller ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This book takes an in-depth look at the theory and methods inherent in the tracing of riverine sediments. Examined tracers include multi-elemental concentration data, fallout radionuclides (e.g., 210Pb, 137Cs, 7Be), radiogenic isotopes (particularly those of Pb, Sr, and Nd), and novel (“non-traditional”) stable isotopes (e.g., Cd, Cu, Hg, and Zn), the latter of which owe their application to ...

  • Carbonatite Volcanism

    Oldoinyo Lengai and the Petrogenesis of Natrocarbonatites

    Edited by Jörg Keller, Keith Bell ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    During the last few years, carbonatites have received a considerable amount of attention. Some of this interest was no doubt kindled by the importance of volatiles in the Earth's mantle, particularly CO , by the fact that carbonatites 2 can be used to monitor the chemical evolution of the sub-continental upper mantle, and by the fact that carbonatites may be effective metasomatizing agents at both ...
