Objectives

1. To measure the 18O/16o and 13C/12c ratios in otolith carbonate from a range of sizes of pilchards from four locations at 3 monthly intervals through one year, and thereby to test whether isotope-based locations signatures persist through time and thus demonstrate the presence of separate populations within the pilchard distribution.
