DOI: 10.1007/s00227-021-03899-8
Abstract: Seabird foraging activities are constrained by the heterogeneous distribution of prey, intra-specific competition, and the varying energy requirements throughout their life history. Investigations of intra-seasonal variation in foraging habitat will, therefore, provide clues to understand… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11273-020-09769-2
Abstract: Wetlands are multi-functional systems that provide a disproportionate number of ecosystem services given the spatial extent they occupy both nationally and globally. The ecological functioning of these wetlands is dependent on the structure of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11430-018-9246-9
Abstract: The kinetic fractionation of open-water evaporation against the stable water isotope H218O is an important mechanism underlying many hydrologic studies that use 18O as an isotopic tracer. A recent in-situ measurement of the isotopic water… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ecss.2018.07.021
Abstract: Abstract Coastal salt marshes consist of a mosaic of vegetated and open water features, which naturally evolve and change over time. However, the rapid expansion of open water areas has been associated with marsh degradation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.expthermflusci.2017.05.006
Abstract: Wind causes migration and eventual removal (dispersal or beaching) of evaporation-suppressing monolayer on open-water storages. Hence, an autonomous system capable of adaptive re-application of monolayer according to the prevailing wind conditions is highly desirable. Key… read more here.
