  <dc:description>Precipitation samples for measurement of stable-isotope ratios of hydrogen (delta&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;H) and oxygen (delta&lt;sup&gt;18&lt;/sup&gt;O) were collected at the Norman Landfill Research Site in Norman, Oklahoma, from May 1996 to October 2008. Rainfall amounts also were measured at the site (U.S. Geological Survey gaging station 07229053) during the collection period. The delta&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;H of precipitation samples ranged from -121.9 to +8.3 per mil, and the delta&lt;sup&gt;18&lt;/sup&gt;O of precipitation ranged from -16.96 to +0.50 per mil. The volume-weighted average values for delta&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;H and delta&lt;sup&gt;18&lt;/sup&gt;O of precipitation over the 12-year measurement period were -31.13 per mil for delta&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;H and -5.57 per mil for delta&lt;sup&gt;18&lt;/sup&gt;O. Average summer-season delta&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;H and delta&lt;sup&gt;18&lt;/sup&gt;O values of precipitation usually were more positive (enriched in the heavier isotopes) than winter values.</dc:description>
