This report summarizes technique, estimated precisions and results for
3H and 3He analyses made on three cruises in the Sargasso Sea. In
addition, a statistical treatment is made on 36 surface (≤10m) 3He/4He
analyses to obtain an estimate of the solubility isotope effect and its
temperature dependence to be
( α - 1) X 1000 °/oo = -(17.3 ~ 0.8) +(0.28 ~ 0.06) T (°C)
with a regression scatter of 2.6 °/oo and a linear correlation coefficient
of 0.640.

W.H.O.I. Helium Isotope Laboratory data report no. 2 : Tritium and ³3He data from the beta triangle (All-107, Oct. 1979 and OC-78, March 1980)
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1985-12)The data incorporated in this report consists of 509 tritium and 467 helium isotope measurements made on samples collected on two cruises to the "Beta Triangle" area, an approximately 1000 km on a side triangle centered near ... -
Helium isotope geochemistry of oceanic volcanic rocks : implications for mantle heterogeneity and degassing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1982-06)The concentrations and isotopic compositions of helium have been measured in a number of mantle derived oceanic basalts. The goal of this research is to use the helium isotopic systematics to constrain the nature and ... -
Helium and lead isotope geochemistry of oceanic volcanic rocks from the East Pacific and South Atlantic
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1987-09)The isotopic evolution of helium and lead in the Earth is coupled by virtue of their common radioactive parents uranium and thorium. The isotopic signatures in oceanic volcanic rocks provide constraints on the temporal ...
