The science behind verification
Trees and plants absorb chemical elements from the environments in which they grow. Climate, geology, water and soil shape those signals, creating spatial patterns across landscapes. Stable isotopes and trace elements are two of the most useful ways of reading that variation.
Multi-element analysis (MEA)
Multi-element analysis measures very small quantities of chemical elements in a sample. Because plants absorb these elements from the soil as they grow, the resulting patterns can vary across landscapes according to location.
Stable Isotopes analysis (SIRA)
Stable isotopes are forms of the same element with different atomic weights. This affects how they are distributed across landscapes through rainfall and other environmental processes.
