Reconstructions of individual fish trophic geographies using isotopic analysis of eye-lens amino acids.
Fish eye lenses are a proteinaceous structure that grows by accumulating layers in a chronological manner. Each layer becomes metabolically inert, capturing the ratio of heavy/light carbon and nitrogen isotopes at time of formation. Therefore, eye lenses contain chronological isotopic records and ca...
