Oxygen isotope composition of precipitation and water in the Middle Protva River system
Oxygen isotope composition of river flow, precipitation and ground water in the middle reaches of the Protva River within the Satino training station of the MSU Faculty of Geography was studies using the stable isotope analysis. Oxygen isotope composition was analyzed at the Isotope Laboratory of the MSU Faculty of Geography with the Delta-V mass-spectrometer with standard gas-bench option. A short-time influence of precipitation on the isotope composition of river water was revealed, the origin of summer precipitation was identified and the causes of rains with anomalous heavy isotope composition were discussed.
