Tracking Animal Migration with Stable Isotopes
Abstract
Keith A. Hobson from Western University and Environment and Climate Change Canada, walks us through tracking animal migration with stable isotopes, starting with some background information. Animal migration is one of the most iconic of all natural phenomena and humans have marvelled at animals' ability to navigate over vast distances often under arduous conditions. Periodic to-and-fro migration is the most familiar form, and birds have clearly captured our imagination on that front with their conspicuous annual movements and arrivals between continents. However, how animals successfully move in this way is still not fully appreciated, and a full understanding will ultimately involve expertise from diverse disciplines.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
