    CIAAW Subcommittees

    Subcommittee on Isotopic Abundance Measurements
    Jun Wang, China (Chair)
    Juris Meija, Canada (Secretary)

    This subcommittee was created in 1975 during the 28th IUPAC General Assembly (Madrid, Spain) with Paul de Bièvre as its inaugural Chairman.
    The Subcommittee on Isotopic Abundance Measurements (SIAM) consists of a group of experts in isotope mass spectrometry and measurement scientists who are concerned with the measurement of isotopic abundances and variations of those abundances in natural materials. The objective of this subcommittee is to evaluate published, peer-reviewed isotope abundance measurements. As such, it furnishes the technical expertise to the Commission, the IUPAC Inorganic Division, and IUPAC on the isotopic abundances of the elements and the atomic weights of the elements as determined from those abundances.

    Past Chairmen of the SIAM include Paul de Bièvre, I. Lynus Barnes, Kevin Rosman, Philip Taylor, John-Karl Böhlke, Michael Berglund, Ronny Schönberg, and Johanna Irrgeher.


    Subcommittee on Stable Isotope Reference Material Assessment
    Manfred Gröning, Austria (Chair)
    Philip Dunn, UK (Secretary)

    This subcommittee was created in 2009 during the 45th IUPAC General Assembly (Glasgow, UK) with Willi Brand as its inaugural Chairman. The objective of this subcommittee is to evaluate published, peer-reviewed isotope reference materials.
