Isotope Fractionation

Isotope Fractionation is a geochemical process in which the relative abundances of isotopes of an element are altered due to physical, chemical, or biological processes that discriminate between isotopes based on their mass, leading to measurable variations in isotope ratios within organic matter or natural systems.
