Abstract	The D/H and (18)O/(16)O ratios in atmospheric water vapor provide rich information on the hydrological cycle and gaseous exchange processes between the terrestrial vegetation and the atmosphere. In this paper, we have demonstrated the feasibility to simultaneously measure both D/H and (18)O/(16)O in atmospheric water vapor using a tunable diode laser absorption spectrometer. Our laboratory tests showed that the 1-h precision (one standard deviation) was 1.1 parts per thousand for D/H and 0.07 parts per thousand for (18)O/(16)O at the dewpoint temperature of 15 degrees C. The difference between the laser measurement and cold trap/mass spectrometer analysis was 1.2 +/- 6.0 parts per thousand (hourly mean +/- one standard deviation) for D/H and 1.1 +/- 1.3 parts per thousand for (18)O/(16)O. Our atmospheric measurement captured the rapidly changing isotopic signals in both D/H and (18)O/(16)O. The measured isotope ratios were highly correlated with the water vapor mixing ratio as expected and followed very closely the Global Meteoric Water Line except during two transitional periods when the deuterium excess of atmospheric vapor deviated from the standard value. In addition, we have refined a method to provide independent, timely performance test of the in situ system. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
