Topics in this FREE webinar include:

• Boron and strontium systematics in the hydrosphere;
• Implications of water pollution on isotopic cycles and pathways; and
• Case studies highlighting research identifying pollution sources and their implications on the environment.

Dr. Pauly will introduce the boron and strontium testing services offered by Isobar Science. She will also describe the lab’s sample submission process and recommendations.

Aside from boron and strontium testing, Isobar Science also provides uranium-thorium dating and Lead (Pb) isotopic measurements. The lab specializes in high-precision elemental analysis of isotopes using wet chemistry, (LA-)MC-ICP-MS, and IRMS.

Isobar Science is a subsidiary of Miami-based Beta Analytic, an ISO 17025-accredited radiocarbon dating laboratory.
