The results obtained support modelling and laboratory cave analogue experiments that indicate temperature, drip rate, pCO₂ and supersaturation are important factors controlling stable isotope fractionation, but also stress the significance of ventilation and evaporation in the cave environment. It is proposed that the effects on stable isotope ratios observed along the altitudinal gradient can be analogues for glacial to interglacial temperature changes in regions which were extensively glaciated in the past.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:51:14 AEST ]]>
