Molecular distributions and hydrogen isotopic compositions of n-alkanes from field studies of tree species : applications for paleoclimate studies
The compound-specific δD values and molecular distributions of n-alkanes preserved in sediment archives are used as paleoclimate proxies. This use is based on two assumptions, 1) n-alkane δD values are highly correlated with source water δD values (Sachse 2012), and 2) the δD values of n-alkanes wit...
