Monthly mobility inferred from isoscapes and laser ablation strontium isotope ratios in caprine tooth enamel
Abstract Strontium isotopic analysis of sequentially formed tissues, such as tooth enamel, is commonly used to study provenance and mobility of humans and animals. However, the potential of 87Sr/86Sr in tooth enamel to track high-frequency movements has not yet been established, in part due to the l...
