Sentences with phrase «isotope geochemist»

An isotope geochemist is a scientist who studies the different forms (isotopes) of elements in rocks, minerals, water, and other natural materials. They analyze the ratios of these isotopes to understand processes like dating rocks, tracing environmental changes, and determining the origins of materials. Full definition
