“…Stable Isotopes of water have been studied in the fields' of ecology and geology since the 1950's with increased attention over the last 30 years [1][2][3][4][5][6]. Historically the samples were analyzed using isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) that requires the evolution of the sample into a gas.…”

A major limitation in the use of stable isotope of water in ecological studies is the time that is required to extract water from soil and plant samples. Using vacuum distillation the extraction time can be less than one hour per sample. Therefore, assembling a distillation system that can process multiple samples simultaneously is advantageous and necessary for ecological or hydrological investigations. Presented here is a vacuum distillation apparatus, having six ports, that can process up to 30 samples per day. The distillation system coupled with the Los Gatos Research DLT-100 Liquid Water Isotope Analyzer is capable of analyzing all of the samples that are generated by vacuum distillation. These two systems allow larger sampling rates making investigations into water movement through an ecological system possible at higher temporal and spatial resolution.

“…As has been reported by Craig (1953) and Wickman (1952) Sackett et al (1965) have studied marine plankton samples from the Atlantic ocean ; they showed that there is a large difference between the isotopic composition of organic carbon in marine planktons and that of other marine organisms.…”
