ESM 5510 - Stable Isotope Ecology

Credits: 3
Max Credit: 3

Application of stable isotope measurements to organismal and systems ecology. Lectures address the theory underlying the use of stable isotopes at natural abundance levels as tracers and integrators of important physiological and ecological processes. Laboratory exercises provide hands on experience with stable isotope ratio measurements.
