Notes: Stated errors are 1σ. Errors for gas concentrations and elemental ratios are 5–7% based on the scatter observed in series of air standards measured prior and after each experiment. (84Kr/132Xe)trapped = 24.4 was used to resolve SW from trapped Xe. “n.d.” stands for light Xe isotopes in blanks which were too small to be determined.
