Abstract: Abstract The hydrogen isotopic composition of leaf waxes ( δD wax ) primarily reflects that of plant source water. Therefore, sedimentary δD wax records are increasingly used to reconstruct the δD of past precipitation (… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Sedimentary plant waxes and their hydrogen and carbon (δ2H and δ13C) isotopes are important proxies for past hydrologic and vegetation change. However sedimentary waxes accumulate from diverse sources, integrating uncertainties from: (i) variable isotope… read more here.
