Analyzing stable isotopes using isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS)

Stable Isotope Ecology Lab

Stable isotopes are atoms of the same elements that differ in mass. The ratio of stable carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen isotopes in organic material, water, or the atmosphere can vary and contain important biological or environmental information.

Our new climate chamber facility is a world-wide unique facility.

The Phytotron Facility

Phytotrons are indoor plant growth facilities that provide precisely controllable climatic conditions for experimental plant research.
