Isoscapes
Isoscapes are spatially explicit predictions of elemental isotope ratios (δ) that are produced by executing process-level models of elemental isotope fractionation or distribution in a Geographic Information System (GIS). The word isoscape is derived from isotope landscape and was first coined by Jason B. West.[1][2][3] Isoscapes of hydrogen, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and strontium have been used to answer scientific or forensic questions regarding the sources, partitioning, or provenance of natural and synthetic materials or organisms via their isotopic signatures. These include questions about migration, Earth's element cycles, human water use, climate, archaeological reconstructions, forensics, and pollution.
Notes
gollark: In that case, sure ish probably.
gollark: Sure. That doesn't imply that all moral systems are basically religion.
gollark: Also, non-modern-western moral systems exist.
gollark: Are the same thing, as far as I know? It's like saying "C++ is simply a more developed version of C so technically we could say that C and C++ are equivalent".
gollark: That's not how equality works.
