Combining simulation modeling and stable isotope analyses to reconstruct the last known movements of one of Nature’s giants
The spatial ecology of rare, migratory oceanic animals is difficult to study directly. Where incremental tissues are available, their chemical composition can provide valuable indirect observations of movement and diet. Interpreting the chemical record in incremental tissues can be highly uncertain,...
