Description

Investigation of stable isotope stratigraphy in the sediments of Chappice Lake, a saline, closed-basin lake in southern Alberta, Canada, has revealed the existence of systematic relations between δ18O and δ13C of coexisting inorganic (carbonate) and organic sediments. Temperature dependence of these equilibrium was also investigated. 8 refs, 2 figs
