Deuterium-depleted water has less deuterium (2 H) than occurs in nature at sea level. [1] Deuterium is a naturally-occurring, stable (non-radioactive) isotope of hydrogen with a nucleus consisting of one proton and one neutron. A nucleus of normal hydrogen (protium, 1 H) consists of one proton only, and no neutron.
Semiheavy water is the result of replacing one of the protium (normal hydrogen, 1 H) in normal water with deuterium (2 H; or less correctly, [1] D). [2] It exists whenever there is water with 1 H and 2 H in the mix. This is because hydrogen atoms (1,2 H) are rapidly exchanged between water molecules.
For water, the condensed phase is more enriched while the vapor is more depleted. For example, rain condensing from a cloud, is heavier than the vapor starting point. Generally, the large variations in deuterium concentration in water are from fractionations between liquid, vapor, and solid reservoirs.
Due to confusion over multiple water standards, the Commission on Isotopic Abundances and Atomic Weights recommended in 1994 that all future isotopic measurements of oxygen-18 (18 O) and deuterium (2 H) be reported relative to VSMOW, on a scale such that the δ 18 O of SLAP is −55.5‰ and the δ 2 H of SLAP is −428‰, relative to VSMOW.
Since one in about every 6,400 hydrogen atoms is deuterium, a 50-kilogram (110 lb) human containing 32 kilograms (71 lb) of body water would normally contain enough deuterium (about 1.1 grams or 0.039 ounces) to make 5.5 grams (0.19 oz) of pure heavy water, so roughly this dose is required to double the amount of deuterium in the body.

The work isn’t done. The offensive line took a huge leap in 2024 but some tweaking can be done up front. Also, one more vertical X-receiver option would complete this wide receiver room.
The Global Meteoric Water Line (GMWL) describes the global annual average relationship between hydrogen and oxygen isotope (oxygen-18 [18 O] and deuterium [2 H]) ratios in natural meteoric waters. The GMWL was first developed in 1961 by Harmon Craig , and has subsequently been widely used to track water masses in environmental geochemistry and ...
