Description:Stable isotope analysis is used to understand the foraging habits and movements of a diverse set of organisms. Variability in stable isotope ratios among tissues derived from the same animal makes it difficult to compare data among study results in which different tissue types are evaluated. Isotopic relationships between two green turtle (Chelonia mydas) tissue types, skin and unhatched egg contents are unknown. Similarly, few data exist to evaluate the influence of time elapsed after oviposition (as a proxy for decomposition) on isotopic variability among unhatched eggs within the same nest.
