Abstract

Tracking Animal Migration with Stable Isotopes provides a consolidated overview of the current knowledge of stable isotopes in terrestrial migration research questions. It offers ecologists and conservation biologists provide a practical handbook for those considering using stable isotopes in their migration research.

  • Presents information for readers to understand how to apply isotopic methods for tracking
  • Critical information on areas for future research
  • Practical guidelines and discussions of sample collection, sample preparation, and data analysis
  • Enhanced understanding of data and statistical analysis in isotope-based studies of migratory animals
