Combining stable isotope ratios with elemental concentrations to improve the estimation of terrestrial carnivore diets
Stable isotopes of animal tissue have been used to estimate diet for many consumer species and places, but the ability to assign contributions to all food items is limited by the number of tracers used, and the separation of the tracer data among the dietary sources. We tested whether we could detec...
