Department of Biology, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah 84112, USA
J Agric Food Chem 56:4084-91. 2008..Although the patterns support the concept of a "continental" supermarket diet, there appears to be a strong regional component within the diet...
δ2H and δ18O of human body water: a GIS model to distinguish residents from non-residents in the contiguous USADavid W Podlesak
Department of Biology, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT, USA
Isotopes Environ Health Stud 48:259-79. 2012..We combine the model with equations that describe the rate of turnover to produce estimates for the time required for a non-resident to reach an isotopic equilibrium with a resident population...

Department of Biology, University of Utah, Salt Lake City, 84112, USA
Physiol Biochem Zool 79:534-49. 2006..These results have implications for how isotopic discrimination is best estimated and how we can study macronutrient routing in wild animals...

Oecologia 151:175-89. 2007..Previous growth models have been for exponential growth; the approach here can be used for several different growth models...
Stable isotopes in breath, blood, feces and feathers can indicate intra-individual changes in the diet of migratory songbirdsDavid W Podlesak
Department of Natural Resources Science, University of Rhode Island, Kingston, RI 02881, USA
Oecologia 142:501-10. 2005..Therefore, comparisons of the delta13C of breath, plasma, RBCs, feces and feathers from individual songbirds can indicate changes in diet and provide an estimate of the timescale of the diet change...
