\subsection{Data handling and calculation of $\Delta$ values}
The clumped isotope
Δi Δ_{i} value of a sample is defined as:
\[{\Delta _i} = \left( {\frac{{{R_i}}}{{R_i^*}} - 1} \right) \times 1000\]

(1)
where
Ri R_{i} is the measured ratio of isotopologue i to the non-isotopically substituted isotopologue and
Ri* R_{i}^{*} is the expected ratio assuming a stochastic distribution of all isotopes over all possible sites in the lattice (reference). For
CO2 CO_{2} we are largely concerned with the isotopologue
13C18O16O ^{13}C^{18}O^{16}O (i = 47) but also determine Δ values for
13C18O17O ^{13}C^{18}O^{17}O (i = 48) and
13C18O18O ^{13}C^{18}O^{18}O (i = 49).
The ratios Ri and Ri* are determined from the measured δi, δ13C and δ18O values of the sample CO2. For R47:

where R47wrg is the 47/44 ratio of the working reference gas (wrg) and is determined as:
