Curated collection
The use of stable isotopes as an analytical tool has been invaluable for scientists in fields ranging from palaeooceanography to anthropology. Researchers have utilized isotopic “fingerprints” to improve our understanding of spatial and temporal changes in a vast array of parameters. In this PLOS ONE curated collection, we present notable discoveries from studies using stable isotopes.
