Abstract: The hydrogen and oxygen stable isotopes in water bodies are very sensitive to environmental changes.In the processes of water vapor evaporation and water vapor condensing into raindrop,the variations of δD and δ18O closely link with moisture sources and surrounding meteorological factors (e.g.temperature,precipitation and relative humidity,etc.).Studying on the temporal-spatial distributions of δD and δ18O in different water bodies can be beneficial to discussing the characteristics of atmospheric circulation and the mechanisms of global and local water cycles.Additionally,it can also provide a new basis for recovering and reconstructing the paleo-climate and paleo-environment.This paper summarizes the research progress of hydrogen and oxygen stable isotopes in different water bodies including its research contents and methods.Moreover,interdisciplinarity and application values of hydrogen and oxygen stable isotopes are discussed in this paper.Based on above discussions,some important directions are proposed for further research in order to provide some ideas for related studies.
