- Nitrogen isotope fractionation in amino acids from harbor seals: implications for compound-specific trophic position calculations (2013, background): “In animals, lighter 14N is preferentially lost as either ammonia or urea, a process which enriches both the body and other N pools in 15N relative to diet (e.g. Balter et al. 2006, Koch 2007).”
- Ten years of experimental animal isotopic ecology (2009, positive): “The combined effect of body size and growth on incorporation rate may exacerbate this complication in large animals, such as ungulates and seals, and in the ‘slow’ tissues that are often used to study them (bone collagen, Koch 2007).”
- Resolving the bulk δ15N values of ancient human and animal bone collagen via compound-specific nitrogen isotope analysis of constituent amino acids (2010, positive): “This principle underpins many isotope studies which have sought to reconstruct the dietary preferences of humans and animals (for recent reviews see Koch, 2007; Lee-Thorp, 2008).”
- Embracing variability in amino acid δ15N fractionation: mechanisms, implications, and applications for trophic ecology (2016, background): “…of a biochemical reaction is dependent not only on the number of steps and associated ε values (i.e., the maximal potential isotopic fractionation) but also on the relative nitrogen fluxes through branch points in the reaction chain (e.g., reviewed by Hayes 2001, Koch 2007, McCarthy et al. 2013).”
- Isotopic ecology ten years after a call for more laboratory experiments (2009, background): “Animal ecologists use stable isotopes in a myriad of applications that range from paleoecology to ecosystem ecology, passing through physiological and population ecology (Hobson & Wassenaar 1999; Koch 2007).”
