DOI: 10.1029/2018jd029008

Abstract: Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a strong greenhouse gas whose mole fraction in the atmosphere has increased over the industrial period. We present a new set of isotope measurements of N2O in air extracted from ice… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2416002121

Abstract: The proportionality of oxygen-to-nitrogen isotope effects (18ε/15ε) is used as a key isotopic signature of nitrogen cycling processes in the environment. Dissimilatory nitrate reduction is observed to have an 18ε/15ε proportionality of ~0.9 in marine… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/treephys/tpy100

Abstract: Among the environmental factors that have an effect on the isotopic signature of tree rings, the specific impact of soil moisture on the Δ13C and, in particular, the δ18O ratios has scarcely been investigated. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.4218562

Abstract: Thallium (Tl) is an extremely toxic metal, whose geochemical behavior remains poorly understood. This study aims to clarify the migration pathway and source apportionment of Tl in sediments from a watershed downstream of an open… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Environmental pollution"

DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.4342929

Abstract: The isotopic signature of radionuclides provides a powerful tool for discriminating radioactive contamination sources and estimating their respective contributions in the environment. In this context, the 135Cs/137Cs ratio has been tested as a very promising… read more here.
