Influence of Diet On the Distribtion of Nitrogen Isotopes in Animals

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of diet on the distribution of nitrogen isotopes in animals was investigated by analyzing animals grown in the laboratory on diets of constant nitrogen isotopic composition and found that the variability of the relationship between the δ^(15)N values of animals and their diets is greater for different individuals raised on the same diet than for the same species raised on different diets.

Strontium isotopes and mobility of a Columbian mammoth (Mammuthus columbi) population, Laguna de las Cruces, San Luis Potosí, México

TL;DR: This paper used strontium isotopic ratios of dental enamel from molars to reconstruct the migration context for three individuals of a Columbian mammoth population (Mammuthus columbi ) around Laguna de las Cruces, San Luis Potosi, central Mexico.

Mobility studies in fossil mammals from Laguna de las Cruces, San Luis Potosí, México: The strontium isotopic analyses

TL;DR: Strontium isotopic ratios from dental enamel of fossil camels, horses, Mammuthus columbi from Laguna de las Cruces, San Luis Potosi, central Mexico, have been used to study their migration behavior.

Feeding ecology of astrohippus stockii from the late hemphillian of central mexico: stable carbon isotopes analysis and dental wear patterns

TL;DR: In this article, the authors applied a multidisciplinary approach to reconstruct the dietary behavior of A. stockii based on a sample from Arroyo La Carreta locality, latest Hemphillian of Guanajuato, central Mexico.

Distribución de Mammuthus columbi (Mammalia, Proboscidea) en el Pleistoceno tardío de Puebla, México

TL;DR: In this article, the authors made a recount of the localities with Mammuthus columbi remains in Puebla State and found that 14% of the total of localities in Mexico have M.columbi fossil remains.

Influence of diet on the distribution of nitrogen isotopes in animals

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of diet on the distribution of nitrogen isotopes in animals was investigated by analyzing animals grown in the laboratory on diets of constant nitrogen isotopic composition and found that the variability of the relationship between the δ(15)N values of animals and their diets is greater for different individuals raised on the same diet than for the same species raised on different diets.

Carbon isotope fractionation in plants

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a mathematical model to predict the overall isotope discrimination in terms of diffusion, interconversion, incorporation, and respiration in C 3, C 4 and crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) photosynthetic pathways.

Two Categories of 13C/12C Ratios for Higher Plants

TL;DR: δ 13C/12C ratios have been determined for plant tissue from 104 species representing 60 families and photosynthetic fractionation leading to such values is discussed.

Global vegetation change through the Miocene/Pliocene boundary

TL;DR: For example, this paper found that between 8 and 6 million years ago, there was a global increase in the biomass of plants using C4 photosynthesis as indicated by changes in the carbon isotope ratios of fossil tooth enamel in Asia, Africa, North America and South America.
