摘要
We present an analysis procedure that allows stable isotopes of chlorine to be analyzed with precision sufficient for geological and hydrological studies. The total analytical precision is less-than-or-equal-to +/- 0.09 parts per thousand, and the present known range of chloride in the surface and near-surface environment is 3.5 parts per thousand. As Cl- is essentially nonreactive in natural aquatic environments, it is a conservative tracer, and its deltaCl-37 is also conservative. Thus, the deltaCl-37 parameter is valuable for quantitative evaluation of mixing of different sources of chloride in brines and aquifers.
