Carbon and nitrogen isotopic survey of northern peruvian plants: baselines for paleodietary and paleoecological studies.
The development of isotopic baselines for comparison with paleodietary data is crucial, but often overlooked. We review the factors affecting the carbon (δ(13)C) and nitrogen (δ(15)N) isotopic compositions of plants, with a special focus on the carbon and nitrogen isotopic compositions of twelve dif...
