Hello all, If interested, please see below for details about our open-access publication in ICES Journal of Marine Science. My co-author, Dr. Carolyn Kurle, and I examined growth layer group characteristics and age estimation interpretation for killer whale teeth, with the hope that our approach might be useful for other researchers studying marine mammal teeth as well.
