Tracking Animal Migration with Stable Isotopes, Second Edition

This new edition provides a complete introduction to new and powerful isotopic tools and applications that track animal migration, reviewing where isotope tracers fit in the modern toolbox of tracking methods. The book provides background information on a broad range of migration scenarios in terrestrial and aquatic systems and summarizes the most cutting-edge developments in the field that are revolutionizing the way migrant individuals and populations are assigned to their true origins. It allows undergraduates, graduate students and non-specialist scientists to adopt and apply isotopes to migration research, and also serves as a useful reference for scientists. The book is divided into 10 chapters with total of 253 pages. It contains total of 34 figures and 13 tables. The aim of this edition it to provide foundational handbook that will serve to introduce students, professional ecologist and biologist interested in terrestrial animal migration to the key aspects of measuring, applying and interpreting stable isotope for terrestrial and marine migratory systems.
