• Trophic position estimates of marine teleosts using amino acid compound specific isotopic analysis (2015, unknown): “…italics are the calculated differences between nitrogen isotopic composition of trophic-source combinations of AAs in primary producers and standard deviations (in parentheses) based on published values from McClelland and Montoya (2002), Chikaraishi et al. (2009, 2010), and McCarthy et al. (2013).”
• Embracing variability in amino acid δ15N fractionation: mechanisms, implications, and applications for trophic ecology (2016, background): “…aspartic acid: Asp; alanine: Ala; isoleucine: Ile; leucine: Leu; proline: Pro; valine: Val) undergo significant isotopic fractionation (often Δ15NC-D >5‰) during transamination and deamination, owing to their close linkage to the rapidly cycling internal glutamate pool (e.g., McCarthy et al. 2013).”
• Diet tracing in ecology: Method comparison and selection (2017, background): “, 2013), as well as to separate cyanobacteria from eukaryotic algae (McCarthy et al., 2013).”
• Trophic structure and food resources of epipelagic and mesopelagic fishes in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre ecosystem inferred from nitrogen isotopic compositions (2015, background): “…and Montoya (2002) and Sherwood et al.
