| 1. | The test is performed by Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry ( IRMS ).
|
| 2. | It has low Sr and Pb isotope ratios and high Nd ratios.
|
| 3. | The evidence suggests, Showers said, that the original isotope ratios remain reasonably intact.
|
| 4. | This sort of graph is based on another of isotope ratio versus time.
|
| 5. | The oxygen isotope ratios in their shells are used as proxies for temperature.
|
| 6. | Isotope tracers are commonly used in the form of isotope ratios.
|
| 7. | The relative abundances of different isotopes can then be measured, yielding isotope ratios.
|
| 8. | However, this evidence can be confounded by other factors recorded by isotope ratios.
|
| 9. | Together, these processes allow the analysis of extreme isotope ratios above 10 12.
|
| 10. | Hydrogen isotope ratios in dinosterols can serve to reconstruct salinity semi-quantitatively.
