Characterization of carbonate fraction of the Atlantic bluefin tuna fin spine bone matrix for stable isotope analysis
The mineral component of fish otoliths (ear bones), which is aragonitic calcium carbonate (CaCO3), makes this structure the preferred sample choice for measuring biological carbon and oxygen-stable isotopes in order to address fundamental questions in fish ecology and fisheries science. The main dra...
