Elemental markers in elasmobranchs: effects of environmental history and growth on vertebral chemistry.
Differences in the chemical composition of calcified skeletal structures (e.g. shells, otoliths) have proven useful for reconstructing the environmental history of many marine species. However, the extent to which ambient environmental conditions can be inferred from the elemental signatures within...
