· However, there is a small but significant impact of external sources reflected by salinity and temperature on the Sr isotope ratio of modern brachiopods. We found a significant difference in 87 Sr/ 86 Sr of brachiopods from polar and temperate-tropical habitats ( p = 0.001), which should be considered when working with deep-time archives.

Shayne C. Gad, in Encyclopedia of Toxicology (Second Edition), 2005 Background Information. Strontium is a naturally occurring element found in rocks, soil, dust, coal, and oil. Naturally occurring strontium is not radioactive and is referred to as stable strontium. Stable strontium in the environment exists in four stable isotopes, 84 Sr (read as …

 · Strontium has four naturally occurring isotopes, with approximate abundances as follows: 84 Sr, 0.56%; 86 Sr, 9.87%; 87 Sr, 7.04%; and 88 Sr, 82.53%. All four isotopes …

The element strontium has four naturally occurring isotopes: 84 Sr, 86 Sr, 87 Sr, and 88 Sr. Only 87 Sr is radiogenic – produced by the β-decay of 87 Rb with a half-life of 48.8 billion …

 · Marine carbon includes organic and inorganic components, both of which must be accounted for to understand the global carbon cycle.

Abstract. The isotopic ratio of strontium-87 to strontium-86 shows no detectable variation in present-day ocean water but changes slowly over millions of years. The strontium contained in carbonate shells of marine organisms records the ratio of strontium-87 to strontium-86 of the oceans at the time that the shells form.
