Description - Isotopic Geochemistry and Paleobiology by Romain Amiot

Isotopic Geochemistry and Paleobiology explores the application of stable isotope geochemistry to extinct vertebrates that have no extant equivalent. With a strong focus on dinosaur paleontology, the book examines how various aspects of dinosaur lifestyles, such as ecology (diet, living environment, reproduction), physiology (body temperature regulation) and climatic conditions can be inferred from the stable isotope composition of fossilized, mineralized tissues (bones, teeth). It is a valuable resource for researchers and students in the geosciences, evolutionary biology and paleoclimatology who want to better understand how to analyze and interpret dinosaur fossil remains.
