14 C and δ 13 C values of C-containing species in cave drip waters are mainly controlled by the C isotope composition of karst rock and soil air, as well as by soil carbon dynamics, in particular the amount of soil CO 2 in the unsaturated soil zone and the process of calcite dissolution. Here, we investigate soil carbon dynamics by analyzing the 14 C activity and δ 13 C values of C dissolved in cave drip water. Monthly over a 2-yr period, we collected drip water from 2 drip sites, one fast and one relatively slow, within the shallow Grotta di Ernesto Cave (NE Italy). The 14 C data reveal a pronounced annual cycle. In contrast, the δ 13 C values do not show an annual pattern and only small interannual variability compared to the δ 13 C values of soil waters. The annual 14 C drip-water cycle is a function of drip-rate variability, soil moisture, and ultimately hydrology
