abstract: "<p>Bulk carbon and nitrogen stable isotope values from baleen from stranded and bowcaught whales in the North Sea. Baleen from 5 animals were sampled incrementally and used to examine growth interval, migration pattern, metabolism and trophic position along with compound specific amino acid analysis provided in another data set.  </p><p></p><p>Bulk carbon and nitrogen data set supporting the manuscript: "Reconstructing the diet, trophic level, and migration pattern of Mysticete whales based on baleen isotopic composition."</p><br>"
