*Universities and non-profit organizations only
Priority is given as follows: 1) users from UC Irvine, 2) users from other UC campuses, and 3) users from other universities and non-profit organizations. We do not provide analyses for private companies or non-affiliated individuals at this time.
We also measure the isotopic composition of trace gases, particularly greenhouse gases, as well as the nitrogen and oxygen isotope ratio of nitrate. We do not generally offer these services to outside users because the measurements are very labor intensive. However, we do work on collaborative projects on greenhouse gas and nitrate isotopes when time and personnel are available. Contact us if you would like more information.
