Stable isotope mass balance of the North American Laurentian Great Lakes
(University of Waterloo, 2011-09-29)This thesis describes a method for calculating lake evaporation as a proportion of water inputs (E/I) for large surface water bodies, using stable isotope ratios of oxygen (18O/16O) and hydrogen (2H/1H) in water. Evaporation ...
