- 1Heavy water isotopes improve weather forecast accuracy▼Heavy water isotopes make weather predictions more accurate
Researchers report that tracking heavy water isotopes—water molecules containing deuterium instead of ordinary hydrogen—can make weather predictions more accurate. By measuring these isotope ratios in atmospheric moisture, scientists gain extra information about where water vapour originated and how it moved through the water cycle. The finding suggests isotope data could become a valuable addition to existing weather models.
