Identifying nesting grounds for juvenile migratory birds with dual isotope: an initial test using North American raptors
Abstract Understanding seasonal mobility, population connectivity, and site fidelity is critical for managing and preserving migratory species. We investigated the potential of coupling strontium (87Sr/86Sr) and hydrogen (δ2H) isotopes in feathers for quantitatively constraining natal origin for juv...
