Fresh water of various origins as distinct from ocean water shows great variations in O 18 -abundance. Proceeding from the temperate towards the colder climates a considerable decrease is noticeable. It is demonstrated that the O 18 -abundance in atmospheric water vapour is dependent on (a) the precipitation temperature, (b) the origin of the vapour and (c) the average cooling of the vapour during the circulation of the water in nature, whereas the O 18 -abundance in a certain precipitation, further, depends on (d) the condensation temperature, (e) the cooling since the beginning of the condensation of the vapour in question and (f) the evaporation during the fall of the precipitation from cloud to ground. Furthermore, the O 18 -abundance in ground water from a certain locality depends on (g) the evaporation from the precipitation since its reaching the ground and (h) the possible exchange of O 18 between the water and oxygenic substances in the ground. Computations on this basis and on measurements of the O 18 -abundance of ocean water are in agreement with measurements of fresh water of various origins.
