Utah Lake is one of the largest freshwater bodies in West and a valuable resource for agricultural recreational activities region. However, it has suffered elevated trace metal nutrient levels since pioneer settlement 1847. The objectives this project were as follows: (1) investigate temporal spatial variations concentrations its tributaries; (2) model across lake using GIS analysis techniques. We collected floc layer sediment samples quarterly well monthly water analyses at designated...
To investigate the hydrology of Utah Lake, we analyzed hydrogen (δ2H) and oxygen (δ18O) stable isotope composition water samples collected from various components its system. The average δ2H δ18O values inlets are similar to groundwater, which in turn has a that is winter precipitation. This suggests snowmelt-fed groundwater main source Valley river waters. In addition, plot close local meteoric line, suggesting no significant evaporation occurring these rivers. contrast, lake outlet have...
To investigate the paleoclimate and paleoenvironment of central Italy during Middle Pleistocene, we analyzed carbon oxygen stable isotope composition carbonate component sequential enamel samples from twenty-four rhinoceros (Stephanorhinus spp.) teeth. The come two key archeological paleontological sites located in Molise region: Isernia La Pineta (ILP; ∼600 ka) Guado San Nicola (GSN; ∼400 ka). Carbon ratios both ILP GSN indicate feeding a pure C3 ecosystem that consisted predominantly...
