Abstract
The fractionation of oxygen isotopes between sea ice and sea water in samples collected from the Gulf of St. Lawrence indicated that sea ice is enriched in its O18:O16 ratio with respect to coexisting sea water. Sources of sea ice in the Gulf of St. Lawrence may be identified on the basis of O18:O16 measurements.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
