The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Chemical Composition of Fish Hard Parts as a Natural Marker of Fish Stocks (2014, background): “For example, Clarke et al. (2007) found scale strontium concentrations of Arctic grayling were not correlated with water chemistry and suggested remobilization may have occurred.”
Using Hard-Part Microchemistry to Advance Conservation and Management of North American Freshwater Fishes (2014, background): “Pectoral fin rays have been shown to provide a similarly permanent record of habitat use despite being composed of apatite (Ca phosphate mineral found in tooth enamel and bone material) rather than carbonate (Wells et al. 2003; Clarke et al. 2007; K. T. Smith and Whitledge 2010).”
Chemical archives in fishes beyond otoliths: A review on the use of other body parts as chronological recorders of microchemical constituents for expanding interpretations of environmental, ecological, and life‐history changes (2017, background): “Trace elements in fin rays typically occur in concentrations that are comparable to other structures (Clarke et al. 2007).”
