Bivalve Mollusk Paleoecology: Trophic and Environmental Reconstruction from Stable Isotopes, Sclerochronology and Shell Damage

I examined how predatory damage in bivalve shells can be used to assess the trophic importance of species, how oxygen isotope ratios in shells can be used to estimate past salinity, and how Colorado River flow affects growth rates in a bivalve mollusk. I devised methods to distinguish predatory dam...
