ANTHROPOLOGY; EARTH, ATMOSPHERIC, AND PLANETARY SCIENCES Correction for “Stable isotope-based diet reconstructions of Turkana Basin hominins,” by Thure E. Cerling, Fredrick Kyalo Manthi, Emma N. Mbua, Louise N. Leakey, Meave G. Leakey, Richard E. Leakey, Francis H. Brown, Frederick E. Grine, John A. Hart, Prince Kaleme, Hélène Roche, Kevin T. Uno, and Bernard A. Wood, which appeared in issue 26, June 25, 2013, of Proc Natl Acad Sci USA (110:10501–10506; first published June 3, 2013; 10.1073/pnas.1222568110). The authors note that on page 10501, left column, line 13 of the abstract, “ca. 35/65 ratio” should instead appear as “ca. 65/35 ratio.” Both the online article and the print article have been corrected.

Stable Isotope Application in Animal Nutrition Science
The application of stable isotope analysis (SIA) has become a standard scientific approach in Agricultural and Ecological researches and, more in general, in several disciplines such as biology, botany, zoology, organic chemistry, climatology, and nutrition. The main objectives of this paper are (1) to provide a simple definition of stable isotopes and (2) to illustrate analytical measurement m...
متن کاملClimatic and Environmental Reconstruction Based on Stable Isotopes of Parishan Lake (Iran)
The isotopic documents of lake deposition are suitable potential means for studyingthe intercontinental, environmental and climatic conditions. In order to study theenvironmental and climatic conditions of Parishan area in Fars province in Holocene, a Corewas taken with the length of 2m from the Parishan lake sediment. From this core, kernel timeseries was provided from documents of carbon and ...
متن کاملCarbon isotopes in functional soil ecology.
Soil is an integral part of terrestrial ecosystems. Many soil ecologists interested in soil ecosystem functioning rely, to some degree, on stable isotope methodologies. The study of the natural abundance of carbon isotopes, especially (13)C but also (14)C, in the environment and the use of stable carbon isotope tracers have proved very useful in investigating the soil carbon cycle and soil trop...
متن کاملSustained net CO2 evolution during photosynthesis by marine microorganism
BACKGROUND Many aquatic photosynthetic microorganisms possess an inorganic-carbon-concentrating mechanism that raises the CO2 concentration at the intracellular carboxylation sites, thus compensating for the relatively low affinity of the carboxylating enzyme for its substrate. In cyanobacteria, the concentrating mechanism involves the energy-dependent influx of inorganic carbon, the accumulati...
متن کاملAncient Diet Reconstruction: A Case Study of Sidon, Lebanon
The present work is associated with dietary reconstruction using δ13C and δ15N analysis of humans from the site of Sidon, a Middle Bronze Age (2000BC-1550BC) settlement in Lebanon. The main objective of this research is to focus on collagen extraction of 23 individual bones, discovered in a cemetery, College site (season 2001-2002) in ancient Sidon. Collagen could only be extracted from the 8 a...
متن کاملCarbon and Oxygen Isotopic Systematics in Calcite and Dolomite from the Sangan Iron Skarn Deposit, Northeastern Iran
A total of 40 samples from carbonates and 8 samples from silicate rocks were analyzed from the Sangan iron skarn deposit to examine behavior of the oxygen and carbon isotopes. The higher values of ?18O are from metamorphic calcite and dolomite and lower ones are from granitic rocks. Although the ?18O and ?13C values of calcite and dolomite in marble yield the highest values in the Sangan deposi...
