Stable isotope relationships between apatite phosphate (δ18 O), structural carbonate (δ18 O, δ13 C), and collagen (δ2 H, δ13 C, δ15 N, δ34 S) in modern human dentine.

The highly significant correlation of δ18 Ophos , δ18 Ocarb , and δ2 Hcoll values in the modern human dentine implies that measurement of δ2 H values in collagen or δ18 O values in bioapatite will provide reliable information about the climate at the person's whereabouts.
