Résumé

Precise and accurate retrospective geolocation of marine predators via their tissues' isotopic composition relies on quality reference maps of relevant isotopic gradients ("isoscapes"). Additionally, a good working knowledge of any discrimination factors that may offset a marine predator's isotopic composition from baseline isotopic values, as well as tissue specific retention rates, are imperative. We provide a critical assessment of inter-specific differences among marine predator-level isoscapes within the Indian Sector of the Southern Ocean. We combined fine-scale GPS tracking data and concurrent blood plasma δ Overall, our study revealed latitudinal spatial gradients in both δ Using a multi-species approach, we provide evidence of large and regional scale systematic spatial variability of δ

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Precise and accurate retrospective geolocation of marine predators via their tissues' isotopic composition relies on quality reference maps of relevant isotopic gradients ("isoscapes"). Additionally, a good working knowledge of any discrimination factors that may offset a marine predator's isotopic composition from baseline isotopic values, as well as tissue specific retention rates, are imperative. We provide a critical assessment of inter-specific differences among marine predator-level isoscapes within the Indian Sector of the Southern Ocean.
METHODS METHODS
We combined fine-scale GPS tracking data and concurrent blood plasma δ
RESULTS RESULTS
Overall, our study revealed latitudinal spatial gradients in both δ
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Using a multi-species approach, we provide evidence of large and regional scale systematic spatial variability of δ
