For many years oxygen and hydrogen isotope analysis have been used as one of the most valuable research tools to investigate many geological processes. There are many sample preparation techniques of oxygen and hydrogen isotope analysis for various geological samples. We introduce here several important sample preparation techniques for oxygen and hydrogen isotope analysis and discuss the problems of each method in detail.

Oxygen isotope ratios (${\delta}^{18}O$) of three Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) specimens from the Neolithic Yeondae-do shell midden site, Tongyeong, Korea, were analyzed to determine the seasonality of shellfish gathering and site occupation. Oxygen isotope samples were taken from the left valve hinge sections of the specimens. Oxygen isotope values ranged between -0.1 ‰ and -2.4 ‰, between -0.2 ‰ and -2.9 ‰, and between 0.3 ‰ and -2.8 ‰ in oyster specimen #one, #two and #three, respectively. The isotope profiles showed seasonal temperature cycles, providing information related to the seasonality of shellfish gathering and site occupation. Hinge-edge oxygen isotope values of the specimens showed decreasing trends after passing through maximum values (winter), indicating that they formed during spring. Thus it can be assumed that during spring season, oysters were gathered and the site was occupied.

Hydrogen and oxygen isotope ratios of thirteen of the under 2 micron size fraction of the montmorillonites were measured. The oxygen isotopic compositions of these samples range from + 17.0 to +25.1 permil and the hydrogen isotope compositions range from -47.5 to -65.8 permil with an average standard deviation of 0.7 and 2.7 permil, respectively. The oxygen isotope compositions show a positive relationship with stratigraphy whereas the hydrogen isotope compositions do not. It suggest that the montmorillonite attained isotopic equilibrium at the maximum burial depth and ratained their oxygen isotope composition on subsequent uplift. Possibilities of montmorillonite formation by weathering or hydrothermal alteration of volcanic material are eliminated by the ${\delta}D$ and ${\delta}^{18}O$ values of these samples. Calculated formation temperature lie between 29 to $80^{\circ}C$.

This study applied a hydrogeological field survey and isotope investigation to identify source locations and delineate pathways of groundwater contamination by nitrogen compounds. The infiltration and recharge processes were analyzed with groundwater-level fluctuation data and oxygen-hydrogen stable isotope data. The groundwater flow pattern was investigated through groundwater flow modeling and spatial and temporal variation of oxygen isotope data. Based on the flow analysis and nitrogen isotope data, source types of nitrate contamination in groundwater are identified. Groundwater recharge largely occurs in spring and summer due to precipitation or irrigation water in rice fields. Based on oxygen isotope data and cross-correlation between precipitation and groundwater level changes, groundwater recharge was found to be mainly caused by irrigation in spring and by precipitation at other times. The groundwater flow velocity calculated by a time series of spatial correlations, 231 m/yr, is in good accordance with the linear velocity estimated from hydrogeologic data. Nitrate contamination sources are natural and fertilized soils as non-point sources, and septic and animal wastes as point sources. Seasonal loading and spatial distribution of nitrate sources are estimated by using oxygen and nitrogen isotopic data.

미국 위스콘신주의 울프리버 저반의 산소동위원소의 조성을 분석한 결과, 분화계열에 속하는 심성암들 간의 산소동위원소 조성은 거의 유사한 경향을 보이고 있으며, 미분화계열에 속하는 신성암체 간의 조성도 거의 유사한 경향을 보였다. 이는 고온에서의 극히 미약한 동위원소 분별작용을 보여주는 것이다. 주변 모암인 피노키안 심성암체의 산소동위원소 조성이 울프리버 저반보다 약 1-2 퍼밀이 높기 때문에 울프리버 저반의 근원 암으로 볼 수는 없으나, 울프리버 저반보다 약간 낮은 산소동위원소 조성을 갖는 근원 마그마가 존배하였다면, 이 마그마에 의한 주변 모암의 동화작용에 의해서 울프리버 저반의 산소동위원소조성의 생성이 가능한 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 소수성 PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) 분리막의 산소동위원소 분리특성을 확인하기 위해 물의 온도에 따른 수증기의 막 투과특성을 Air Cap Membrane Distillation (AGMD)과 Vacuum Enhanced Membrane Distillation (VEMD) 방법을 이용하여 각각 측정하였다. 투과된 수증기는 트랩에서 수거하여 투과플럭스 (permeation flux)를 측정하였고$ H_2^{16}O$와 $H_2^{18}O$의 성분비는 다이오드 레이저 흡수분광법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 분리막을 투과한 수증기에서 무거운 산소동위원소의 성분비가 감소함을 확인하였고 분리계수는 실험 조건에 따라 1.004~1.01로 측정되었다. 또한 분리막의 기공에 있는 공기가 산소동위원소의 분리에 미치는 영향을 확인하였고 기공내 공기가 없을 때 동위원소 분리계수가 증가함을 관찰하였다.

In archaeology, oxygen isotope analysis using marine shells has been used to reconstruct past environment and determine the season of shellfish-gathering activities in the past. Modern oysters(Crassostrea gigas) from Solsum ao the mouth of Chonsu Bay were anayzed to examine the potential of the species for determining seasonality by oxygin isotope analysis. As a result, it appears that the species can be used for this purpose.

This study aims to prepare a technical protocol for identifying the source of nitrate in water using nitrogen (δ¹⁵N) and oxygen (δ¹⁸O) stable isotope ratios. The technical processes for nitrate sources identification are composed of site investigation, sample collection and analysis, isotope analysis, source identification using isotope characteristics, and source apportionment for multiple potential sources with the Bayesian isotope mixing model. Characteristics of various nitrate potential sources are reviewed, and their typical ranges of δ¹⁵N and δ¹⁸O are comparatively analyzed and summarized. This study also summarizes the current knowledge on the dual-isotope approach and how to correlate the field-relevant information such as land use and hydrochemical data to the nitrate source identification.

Two marine bivalve shells were collected from the eastern and western coastal regions of Korea, respectively. Stable oxygen and carbon isotope profiles are constructed using the incremental sampling along the axis of maximum growth to provide the continuous ${\delta}^{18}$O and ${\delta}^{13}$C records, which register the physical, biological and chemical properties of seawater where the organisms live. Cycles in the ${\delta}^{18}$O profiles are interpreted as annual along with the identification of annual growth bands; the maximum ${\delta}^{18}$O values correspond with the coldest temperature of seawater whereas the minimum ${\delta}^{18}$O values with the warmest temperature. The primary control on the amplitude of the ${\delta}^{18}$O profiles is seasonal variation of seawater temperature. The offset of the baseline between ${\delta}^{18}$O values of the two specimens is attributed to differences in both temperature and seawater ${\delta}^{18}$O values between two localities. The ${\delta}^{13}$C profiles show the similar seasonality of carbon cycling associated with phytoplankton productivity. The offset in the ${\delta}^{13}$C profiles between two specimens may be, as in the case of oxygen isotope profile, attributed to the different ${\delta}^{13}$C value of the seawater DIC (dissolved inorganic carbon) between the western coast and the eastern coast. Relationships between the shell isotopic composition and the coastal water properties of shell growth are readily interpreted from the ${\delta}^{18}$O-${\delta}^{13}$C pair diagram of the shell isotope data, similar to the use of salinity-${\delta}^{18}$O diagram for identifying water masses. The preliminary stable isotope results of this study suggest that mollusk shell isotope geochemistry may be useful to monitor the properties of water masses in the coastal and inner shelf setting around Korea and improve the interpretation of paleoceanography, provided the fossil mollusks are well preserved.

우리나라의 패총에 대한 이해를 위해서는 패총을 주로 구성하는 굴에 대한 연구가 중요하다. 그러나 굴은 패각이 약하고 부서지기 쉬운 특성으로 인해 완형의 패각 시료를 입수하는 것이 어렵기 때문에 산소동위원소 분석 및 고고학적 연구에 한계가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 굴 채집 및 패총 유적 점유 계절성 연구를 위한 시론으로서, 패각 본체가 부서져도 비교적 단단한 조직을 갖고 있어 양호한 상태로 잘 보존되는 굴의 경첩 부위를 이용한 산소동위원소 분석을 시도하였다. 분석을 위한 시료는 당진 가곡리의 신석기시대 패총에서 출토된 굴을 이용하였다. 분석 결과 가곡리 굴 시료의 산소동위원소 값은 - 2.02- -6.05‰의 범위 안에서 주기성을 보이며 계절적 수온 변화 주기를 나타내었다. 탄소동위원소 값도 산소동위원소 값의 증감과 유사한 변화주기를 보이고 있어 산소동위원소와 더불어 서식환경의 계절적인 영향을 잘 반영하였다. 이러한 동위원소 분석을 바탕으로 가곡리 굴 시료는 최고 수온기를 지나 수온이 하강하는 시점 즉 가을철에 채집된 것으로 판단되며 이를 바탕으로 가곡리 패총은 가을철에 이용된 것으로 추정할 수 있다. 패총의 전반적인 점유계절에 관하여는 좀 더 많은 시료가 분석된다면 보다 상세히 알 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 굴의 경첩 부위를 이용한 산소동위원소 분석법은 고고학적인 계절성 연구에 적용 가능하고, 향후 고고학적인 문제의 해결에 기여할 것으로 기대된다. 또한 경첩은 크기가 작아 분석 비용을 절감할 수 있어 경제적이다. 경첩의 작은 크기로 인한 시료 채취상의 문제는 미세채취기 (micromill) 를 이용한 고해상 (high-resolution) 의 동위원소 분석 방법을 이용하면 극복될 것으로 생각된다.
