Neanderthal's high nitrogen values usually lead to them being interpreted as hypercarnivore. But the original study suggests maggots in stored and putrefied meat as cause for the high values:

Die hohen Stickstoffwerte von Neanderthalern führen üblicherweise dazu, dass sie als Hypercarnivoren bezeichnet werden. Aber die Originalstudie legt Maden aus gelagertem & verrottetem Fleisch als Grund für die hohen Werte nahe.

The FSBI Jul 10

How is #fisheries management evolving? Chris Harrod tells us how #StableIsotopes can be used to understand #fish #ecology. #LoughNeagh and #SteangfordLough were treated completely differently. But, when brought together in a #StableIsotope study, it was seen that a large amount of the diet from #cormorants in Stanford Lough comes from Lough Neagh. The systems are connected #FSBI2025

Now, Brian Hayden takes us to the world of #StableIsotopes. He tells us about his journey, now setting up Atomic Ecology, a service providing stable isotopes insights to end users. A vast array of appications of this tool, from population level habitat use to food Web structure. #FSBI2025

Duck-Billed Dinosaurs on the Move! - Canadian Museum of Nature

Joshua Wasserlauf is analyzing fossil isotopes to unlock some of the mysteries behind dinosaur behaviour. Find out what he has discovered about the duck-billed dinosaurs (hadrosaurs), including how they fed, migrated and raised their young.
