Isotopic proveniencing and mobility : the current state of research

Isotopic proveniencing and mobility : the current state of research / T. Douglas Price, editor.

This volume provides a state-of-the-art presentation and discussion of procedures, especially what works and what doesnt on isotopic proveniencing, learned over the last 30 years. The volume focuses on application, not method, to emphasize to the reader the wide range of questions that can be addres...
