The size variations in the Antarctic ice sheet over time have confirmed its unstable nature, made worse by greenhouse ...

Researchers have unveiled new findings that reshape our understanding of the Moon's formation and Earth's early hydration.

Published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the study found that oxygen-17 isotopes on the moon closely ...

The study suggests that the Moon likely formed largely from Earth's mantle material — with minimal involvement from Theia.

Scientists have observed a never-before-seen form of oxygen, and its behavior could call into question what nuclear physics says about “magic numbers”. Imagine, if you will, that you could see within ...

A research team from the University of Göttingen and the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research (MPS) has discovered ...

A research team has discovered another piece in the puzzle of the formation of the Moon and water on Earth. The prevailing theory was that the Moon was the result of a collision between the early ...

A recent study by researchers from the University of Göttingen and the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research has ...

Oxygen was the first stable isotope used to determine migratory history in marine environments. Stable isotope analyses using marine oxygen have used barnacle shells attached to the study animal.

This measurement provides carbon, oxygen and “clumped” isotope ratios for carbonate minerals, which enables us to reconstruct the temperature at which the carbonate formed, along with information ...

These unique networks provide Member States access to global and regional data sets on water isotopes (oxygen-18, deuterium and tritium) and related mapping products. These widely used data sets are ...
