This is terribly, sad news. Keith was not only a pioneer and an isotope guru, but also a generous warm, funny and overall lovely person to be around, and a big part of what made stable isotope ecology a lovely place to be part of. Raising several glasses to you tonight, Keith
Fellow isotopists, I have just learned that Keith Hobson has passed away. I can’t possibly express how sad I feel. Keith was such a great person and scientist. He turned stable isotope based methods into one the most important and influential tools in ecology research.
RIP Keith.
