In our laboratory, we focus on clumped isotopes in methane, carbonate minerals and carbon dioxide: we measure the abundance of molecules bearing several heavy isotopes, which can be used to investigate questions from geochemistry to atmospheric chemistry and biology. Common applications are the determination of formation temperatures for carbonate minerals and distinguishing thermogenic from microbial methane.
