Stable isotopes of carbon (δ13C) and oxygen (δ18O) from vaquita (Phocoena sinus) bones as indicators of habitat use in the Upper Gulf of California

Stable isotopes of carbon (δ13C) and oxygen (δ18O) from vaquita (Phocoena sinus) bones as indicators of habitat use in the Upper Gulf of California

The vaquita (Phocoena sinus) is an endemic species of the Upper Gulf of California (UGC), which is in a critical state of extinction. Bycatch has been considered the main factor leading to its potential extinction; however, the impact of the damming of the Colorado River on the species’ ecology has...
