not interpreted to reflect climate (note by Iso2k compiler: dD precip does not change seasonally in this part of Greenland, likely because source areas are proximal and carry relatively enriched moisture to this region throughout the year)

Winter snow melting during growing season. "dD values of long-chain n-alkanes (dDwax) reflect dD of water used by terrestrial vegetation after modification by biosynthetic processes (Sachse et al., 2012 and references therein). Soil moisture provides the source water for terrestrial plants, while lake water is the source for aquatic macrophytes and algae. dD of water in soils can be modified to some extent from dD of annual precipitation by evaporation. However, it has been shown that dDwax is unaltered by plants following leaf formation and therefore reflects dDwater used during leaf flush (Kahmen et al., 2011; Sachse et al., 2010; Tipple et al., 2013). In the Arctic, the majority of leaf formation takes place in late spring/early summer following the return of appreciable sunlight. Because snowmelt is the predominant water source available to plants at the time of leaf formation, the dDwax is potentially biased toward wintertime dDp (i.e. snowfall months). In Tasiilaq, the difference between precipitation-weighted annual average dDp (?92?) and precipitation- weighted average dDp during months with below zero average temperatures (October-April; ?96?) is negligible (Bowen, 2008; Cappelen et al., 2011), and thus, any changes in the timing of leaf formation during the Holocene, or in the seasonality of precipitation, are unlikely to have had much impact on dDwax."
