Bulk and amino acid stable isotope analysis of fin whale baleens

We used the isotopic signal of fin whale baleens to determine the precedence of the stranded whales and their possible encounter with ships along the way to the port of finding (Rotterdam). Additionally we used the amino acid δ15N of the baleens to track the migration of these species which potentia...

Description
Summary:We used the isotopic signal of fin whale baleens to determine the precedence of the stranded whales and their possible encounter with ships along the way to the port of finding (Rotterdam). Additionally we used the amino acid δ15N of the baleens to track the migration of these species which potentially could travel between isotopically different regions.
