Isotope hydrology helps governments find and understand the source of their water supplies – so they can develop management ...

Electron shells are mentioned. Two extra neutrons are added to make an unstable isotope which explodes at the end. This clip could be used to illustrate and introduce the concept of isotopes as an ...

Certain isotopes are unstable and undergo a process of radioactive decay, slowly and steadily transforming, molecule by molecule, into a different isotope. This rate of decay is constant for a ...

A radioactive isotope's nucleus is unstable and spontaneously decays, giving off radiation and changing into a different isotope. The rate at which nuclei decay is constant. Half-life describes ...

Stable isotopes do not decay into other elements. In contrast, radioactive isotopes (e.g., 14C) are unstable and will decay into other elements. The less abundant stable isotope(s) of an element have ...

This Section implements all activities of the IAEA's Water Resources Programme, which promotes and transfers know-how on the use of isotope hydrology as an effective tool for water resources ...
