Abstract:

This dataset contains clumped isotope as well as carbon and oxygen isotope data pertaining to a set of ground sloth and mammoth tooth specimens. Measurements were performed at the University of California, Los Angeles. This data was collected for the purpose of determining the body temperature and physiology of ancient ground sloths.
