Summary:

This volume is devoted to Earth surface environmental reconstructions & environmental changes that may be deciphered & modelled using stable isotopes along with mineralogical/chemical, sedimentological, palaeontological/biological & climatological methodologies. The book is divided into two sections, both using stable isotopes (D, 18O, 13C, d15N, 34S, clumped isotopes 47) in various samples & phases as the main research tool. The first section is devoted to studies focusing on the distribution of isotopes in precipitation, groundwater, lakes, rivers, springs, tap water, mine water & their relationship with terrestrial environments at regional to continental scale. In relation to this, the second section includes case studies from a range of continental settings, investigating cave deposits, animal skeletons, present & past soils & limestones.
