Synopsis
Tracking Animal Migration with Stable Isotopes, Second 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 new edition thoroughly updates the information available to the reader on current applications of this technique and provides new tools for the isotopic assignment of individuals to origins, including geostatistical multi-isotope approaches and the ways in which researchers can combine isotopes with routine data in a Bayesian framework to provide best estimates of animal origins. Four new chapters include contributions on applications to the movements of terrestrial mammals, with particular emphasis on how aspects of animal physiology can influence stable isotope values., Tracking Animal Migration with Stable Isotopes, Second 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.

Four new chapters include contributions on applications to the movements of terrestrial mammals, with particular emphasis on how aspects of animal physiology can influence stable isotope values. Includes an animal physiology component that is an in-depth overview of the cautions and caveats related to this technique Covers marine and aquatic isoscapes and methods to track marine organisms for researchers trying to apply isotopic tracking to animals in these environments Features state-of-the-art statistical treatments for assignment and combining diverse datasets, Long-distance movement and migration of terrestrial and aquatic animals represents one of the most spectacular, yet poorly understood, features of their life cycles. Migration can be dramatic and breathtaking, often involving moments over thousands of kilometers. Apart from understanding the evolution of this phenomenon and the myriad of adaptations migratory organisms use, effective conservation of migrant organisms requires the ability to quantify and link the diverse geographic regions used throughout their annual cycle. For decades, approaches to making such linkages have relied on limited observational networks or on traditional methods such as tagging and recovery of the same individual. We now have a diverse and impressive array of technologies ranging from satellite tags to miniaturized transmitters and archival recorders. However, there are still vast areas of research and conservation that can only be addressed using intrinsic markers which provide clues to animal origins not requiring initial mark and recaptures. Over the past decade, stable isotopes have become a key tool in the study of animal movements and have yielded new and valuable insights into terrestrial and aquatic animal migration. The goal of this Second Edition is to provide a consolidated overview of the current knowledge of stable isotopes in terrestrial migration research questions, and to provide a practical handbook for scientists considering using stable isotopes in their migration research. New features since the previous edition, Comprehensive updated of contemporary literature, Update of stable isotopic methods and compound specific approaches, Review and update isotope assignment approaches, New chapter on marine animal migration, New chapter on terrestrial mammal migration, Case study using IsoriX in R for assignment modeling Book jacket.

The seller also messaged me as soon as the purchase went through so communication was great. This was the last book in the series that I needed and to be able to find it in such great condition and at a great cost was unexpected. Highly recommend this seller and will definitely buy from again in the future.MARTIN THE WARRIOR (REDWALL) By Brian Jacques - Hardcover **BRAND NEW** (#187149385105)

The seller met two out of three categories I look for when judging my purchasing experience: how well it was packaged, how quickly it was shipped, and how properly it was described; this seller provided prompt shipping and an accurate description, but failed when it came to packaging. The item arrived in a plastic bag without any reinforcement or protection whatsoever and suffered dinged corners on multiple fronts.
