Cenozoic megatooth sharks occupied extremely high trophic positions
Trophic position is a fundamental characteristic of animals, yet it is unknown in many extinct species. In this study, we ground-truth the (15)N/(14)N ratio of enameloid-bound organic matter (δ(15)N(EB)) as a trophic level proxy by comparison to dentin collagen δ(15)N and apply this method to the fo...
