Polar Bears: Breath analyses
Summary
Exhaled breath was collected and analyzed for stable carbon isotopes at the University of Wyoming Stable Isotope Facility, and for respirometry exchange ratio following Whiteman et al. (2012; J. of Mammalogy 93:413-421). Information on bear IDs and dates of capture is not available because of the threatened species status of the subjects.
