Stable oxygen (δ18O) and hydrogen (δD) isotopes in precipitation from Inuvik in the western Canadian Arctic (2015-2018)
Precipitation was collected in the city of Inuvik (68.3°N, 133.5°W) in the western Canadian Arctic over 37 months between August 2015 and August 2018. The regular sampling of meteoric water for subsequent stable isotope analysis was conducted at the Aurora Research Institute (Western Arctic Research...
