Biogeochemical methods using stable isotopes and trace elements have been increasingly
developed and applied to reconstruct modern and ancient breastfeeding and weaning …

Assessments of temporal variation in diets are important for our understanding of the
ecology of many vertebrates. Ratios of naturally occurring stable isotopes in animal tissues …

The use of stable isotope ratio analysis in archaeology has exploded over the past few
decades to the point where it is now an established tool that is routinely used to investigate …

Naturally occurring variations in the stable isotope composition of fossil vertebrates have
been studied since the late 1970s. Isotopic data from vertebrate fossils are sometimes used …

Carbon isotopic signatures recorded in vertebrate tissues derive from ingested food and
thus reflect ecologies and ecosystems. For almost two decades, most carbon isotope-based …

ABSTRACT 1 Stable isotope analysis (SIA) has the potential to become a widespread tool in
mammalian ecology, because of its power in resolving the ecological and behavioural …

Local environmental conditions under dense canopy are known to result in depletion in 13C
abundance in plants compared to an open land context. This canopy effect has been …

Nous avons mesuré les rapports des isotopes stables de carbone et d'azote dans des poils
de garde provenant de 81 populations de grizzlis (Ursus arctos L., 1758) largement …

Anomalously 13 C-depleted carbon stable isotope values from closed forest ecosystems
have been termed the 'canopy effect'. Originally this was ascribed to recycling of depleted …

Hypotheses to explain diversity among African ungulates focus largely on niche separation
along a browser/grazer continuum. However, a number of studies advocate that the …
