Organic Phases in Bivalve (Arctica Islandica) Shells: Their Bulk and Amino Acid Nitrogen Stable Isotope Compositions

Abstract The stable nitrogen isotope composition of bivalve shell organics serves as a proxy for nitrogen fluxes in modern and past ecosystems. An essential prerequisite to reconstruct environmental variables from δ15N values of bivalve shells is to understand if pristine isotope signals can be retr...
