Isotope and Element Analysis Platform
The platform (incl. Gas IRMS, noble Gas MS, MC-ICPMS, X-ray, gas chromatography, molecular-scale isotope modelling) is dedicated to matter flux studies and isotopic fingerprinting to identify and quantify environmental and solid-earth processes from ancient records to modern environments.
