Welcome to GIGL

Field site in Alaska, summer 2012

Welcome to GIGL: a University of Michigan facility for the study of radiogenic, radioactive and stable isotopes in the earth sciences. We currently are working on projects in ice core research, glaciers and ice sheets, dust transport, chemical oceanography, and soils. Our facilities are geared toward high-precision, high-accuracy measurements of a variety of isotopic systems including U-series, Sr, Nd, Hf, and B. And, we aren't just lab rats – we love the field!
