Abstract:East Lake and Paulina Lake are twin crater lakes in the Newberry caldera, near Bend, Oregon. Despite their proximity, the lakes are chemically different: CO 2 and H 2 S inputs in East Lake, and hot carbonate-rich fluids in Paulina Lake. Paulina Lake has four times the concentration of dissolved species as East Lake. Dissolved carbon in East Lake is isotopically much heavier (up to +5.5‰) than in Paulina Lake (0‰). Both lakes have internal P CO2 > P CO2 (atm), leading to diffusive CO 2 loss from the lake surfac… Show more
“…Both PL1 and PL2 have low organic content and it has not been possible to find enough terrestrial organic matter in the lower sections of the cores for 14 C dating at this time. It is not possible to use lake derived carbon for 14 C dating as the carbon entering the lake through the hydrothermal system is depleted in 14 C (Brumberg, 2017).…”
There are many people who I need to thank for making this project happen. First, I would like to thank Joop and my other committee members, Tim and Ellen, for supporting this work. Thank you all for being here for me as it went on into the summer.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
