DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3637

Abstract: Diet analysis integrates a wide variety of visual, chemical and biological identification of prey. Samples are often treated as compositional data, where each prey is analyzed as a continuous percentage of the total. However, analyzing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00227-018-3438-4

Abstract: Herbivorous fishes are an important component of coral reef systems worldwide, but their nutritional ecology is poorly understood, particularly the relationships between the taxonomic composition and the nutritional composition of their diets. We compared dietary… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00227-024-04441-2

Abstract: Knowledge of the diet of marine predators such as seabirds is fundamental to understanding the ecological cascades they may influence and the impact that environmental changes may have on them. Diet analysis of seabirds frequently… read more here.

DOI: 10.1515/mammalia-2017-0161

Abstract: Abstract Diet analysis is an essential part in understanding the biology of a species and functioning of ecosystems. Traditional morphological identification of undigested remains in the scats and molecular analyses of prey species’ DNA have… read more here.
