Stable isotope compositions (δ2H, δ18O and δ17O) of rainfall and snowfall in the central United States

Abstract Stable isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen (δ2H, δ18O and δ17O) can be used as natural tracers to improve our understanding of hydrological and meteorological processes. Studies of precipitation isotopes, especially 17O-excess observations, are extremely limited in the mid-latitudes. To fill th...
