Stable isotope analysis provides new information on winter habitat use of declining avian migrants that is relevant to their conservation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Winter habitat use and the magnitude of migratory connectivity are important parameters when assessing drivers of the marked declines in avian migrants. Such information is unavailable for most species.

Combining stable isotope ratios with elemental concentrations to improve the estimation of terrestrial carnivore diets

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2023
Stable isotopes of animal tissue have been used to estimate diet for many consumer species and places, but the ability to assign contributions to all food items is limited by the number of tracers used, and the separation of the tracer data among the ...

Degradation changes stable carbon isotope depth profiles in palsa peatlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Palsa peatlands are a significant carbon pool in the global carbon cycle and are projected to change by global warming due to accelerated permafrost thaw. Our aim was to use stable carbon isotopes as indicators of palsa degradation.

Calcium Absorption during Fruit Development in ‘Honeycrisp’ Apple Measured Using 44Ca as a Stable Isotope Tracer

open access: yes, 2017
Calcium (Ca) sprays are commonly used to control Ca-related disorders such as bitter pit in apple. Increases in the frequency and the amount of Ca applied directly to the fruit have increased fruit Ca levels and are associated with a reduction in bitter ...

Importance of vegetation, topography and flow paths for water transit times of base flow in alpine headwater catchments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The mean transit time (MTT) of water in a catchment gives information about storage, flow paths, sources of water and thus also about retention and release of solutes in a catchment.

Stable Isotopes for Tracing Cardiac Metabolism in Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Although metabolic remodeling during cardiovascular diseases has been well-recognized for decades, the recent development of analytical platforms and mathematical tools has driven the emergence of assessing cardiac metabolism using tracers. Metabolism is

Radial and axial water movement in adult trees recorded by stable isotope tracing.

open access: yesTree Physiology, 2021
The capacity of trees to release water from storage compartments into the transpiration stream can mitigate damage to hydraulic functioning. However, the location of these 'transient' water sources, and also the pathways of water movement other than ...

Probing stratospheric transport and chemistry with new balloon and aircraft observations of the meridional and vertical N2O isotope distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A comprehensive set of stratospheric balloon and aircraft samples was analyzed for the position-dependent isotopic composition of nitrous oxide (N2O). Results for a total of 220 samples from between 1987 and 2003 are presented, nearly tripling the number

13C Tracer Studies of Metabolism in Mouse Tumor Xenografts

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2015
Mice are widely used for human tumor xenograft studies of cancer development and drug efficacy and toxicity. Stable isotope tracing coupled with metabolomic analysis is an emerging approach for assaying metabolic network activity.

Probing the metabolic phenotype of breast cancer cells by multiple tracer Stable Isotope Resolved Metabolomics

open access: yesMetabolic Engineering, 2017
Breast cancers vary by their origin and specific set of genetic lesions, which gives rise to distinct phenotypes and differential response to targeted and untargeted chemotherapies. To explore the functional differences of different breast cell types, we
