Radiogenic and Radioisotopic Analysis
Precision Isotopic Analysis for Understanding Time, Source, and Process.
Radiogenic and Radioisotopic Analysis (³H, ¹⁴C, ⁹⁰Sr, U–Th, noble gases, etc.)
IT² offers a comprehensive suite of radiogenic and radioisotopic analyses designed to quantify groundwater residence times, characterize fluid evolution, and resolve geological or environmental processes over a broad range of timescales.
Age Dating and Source Identification
Our expertise includes measurement and interpretation of tritium (³H) and radiocarbon (¹⁴C) for groundwater and porewater dating, as well as strontium-90 (⁹⁰Sr) for environmental monitoring and contamination assessment.
Groundwater Residence Time and Environmental Assessment
For mineral and carbonate systems, Uranium–Thorium (U–Th) dating provides absolute age constraints on diagenetic or depositional events, while Sr isotopes (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr) and select noble gas isotopes (³He/⁴He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe) are employed for provenance, fluid source identification, and geochemical evolution studies.
