    Small Tails Tell Tall Tales – Intra-Individual Variation in the Stable Isotope Values of Fish Fin
    (Public Library of Science, 2015) Hayden, Bryan; Cunjak, Richard A.
    ... To account for the effects of intra-fin variability in stable isotope analyses we suggest that researchers sampling fish fin, in increasing priority, 1) also analyse muscle (or liver) tissue from a subsample of fish to calibrate their data, or 2) standardize sampling by selecting tissue only from the extreme tip of a fin, or 3) homogenize fins prior to analysis.
