Isotopes

The stable isotopes of water (oxygen-18 and deuterium) are used as tracers for quantifying fluxes across hydrological compartments, including flow in the vadose zone (WP3) and groundwater-surface water interactions (WP4 and WP5).

Danish Network of Isotopes in Precipitation (WP10)
A regional network of precipitation collectors has been established in 2012 with the objective of obtaining time series of stable isotopes in precipitation across the Skjern River Catchment. The network is supported by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and is the Danish part of the Global Network of Isotopes in Precipitation (GNIP).
