This is a new page and will be developed over time. The least I can do for now is to put the chart up even though it has only a few data points.
Note that the slope should not be expected to be greater than 8. As more samples are analyzed and the results come in, I'll update the page.
The rainwater samples have been collected by myself between the dates of the 10th of November 2009 and the present. The analyses were performed at the UC Davis Stable Isotope Facility at my own expense and also at Purdue SIL at their expense.
Special thanks go to those who have encouraged and offered employment that helped pay for the analyses (and the analyses to come).
