Abstract

See full text

An isotope ratio of a continuous sample is measured in an isotope ratio spectrometer. At least one sample isotope ratio is measured over a measurement time period tns, (n≧1) and a sample concentration cns is measured over at least a part of the measurement time period tns. A reference gas concentration cnref for the spectrometer is selected for reference to the sample measured during the measurement time period tns, on the basis of the measured sample concentration cnref. An isotope ratio of the reference gas is measured at the selected reference gas concentration cnref in the spectrometer. The at least one isotope ratio of the sample measured during the measurement time period tns is calibrated using the measured isotope ratio of the reference gas at the corresponding reference gas concentration cnref and a plurality of calibrated isotope ratios and a plurality of sample gas concentration measurements are determined, each being for a different time.
