Hydrogen and oxygen isotope ratios in human hair are related to geography

We develop and test a model to predict the geographic region-of-origin of humans based on the stable isotope composition of their scalp hair. This model incorporates exchangeable and nonexchangeable hydrogen and oxygen atoms in amino acids to predict the δ(2)H and δ(18)O values of scalp hair (primar...
