Project

High precision isotope ratio infrared spectroscopy (IRIS) analyser for liquid water samples

The equipment in this project allows high-throughput of water stable isotope analyses in highprecision.
This will allow to elaborate existing and develop new collaborations to understand the local and global water cycle, to unravel water movement and use through the soil -plant continuum, to reconstruct paleo-climatic conditions, to assess adulteration of beverages, and to study human body water.
