Direct radiocarbon ( 14 C) analysis of methane using positive ion mass spectrometry
The reduction of anthropogenic methane emissions is a priority due to its potent global warming potential. Radiocarbon ( 14 C) can distinguish between methane from natural biogenic and fossil fuel sources, however, the analysis of methane 14 C by conventional accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) techniques is demanding. At SUERC, a prototype positive ion mass spectrometer (PIMS) is set up to directly analyze 14 C in methane with minimal sample pre…
Storage and Hydrolysis of Seawater Samples for Inorganic Carbon Isotope Analysis
Preservation of seawater samples was tested for total inorganic carbon (∑CO 2 ), stable carbon isotope (δ 13 C), and radiocarbon ( 14 C) applications using foil bags and storage by refrigeration and freezing. The aim was to preserve representative samples with minimal storage effects but without using toxic methods such as mercuric chloride poisoning. Hydrolysis of samples to CO 2 was based on existing methods. Results of IAEA-C2 standard used wi…
