Amino acid δ(15)N underestimation of cetacean trophic positions highlights limited understanding of isotopic fractionation in higher marine consumers

Compound‐specific stable isotope analysis (CSIA) of amino acids (AAs) has been rapidly incorporated in ecological studies to resolve consumer trophic position (TP). Differential (15)N fractionation of “trophic” AAs, which undergo trophic (15)N enrichment, and “source” AAs, which undergo minimal trop...
