Geographical, temporal, and individual‐based differences in the trophic ecology of female Cape fur seals
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9790
Abstract: Abstract Information on resource use and trophic dynamics of marine predators is important for understanding their role in ecosystem functioning and predicting population‐level responses to environmental change. Where separate populations experience different local environmental conditions,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.4024
Abstract: Popular as aquarium fish, armored catfishes from South America (Pterygoplichthys spp.) have been introduced and become invasive in tropical and sub-tropical regions worldwide. These ecosystem engineers can deplete basal resources (e.g., periphyton and detritus), with… read more here.

Differences in the trophic ecology of micronekton driven by diel vertical migration

DOI: 10.1002/lno.11128
Abstract: Abstract Many species of micronekton perform diel vertical migrations (DVMs), which ultimately contributes to carbon export to the deep sea. However, not all micronekton species perform DVM, and the nonmigrators, which are often understudied, have… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00227-017-3236-4
Abstract: Understanding the trophic ecology of deep-sea communities provides valuable insight into deep-water ecosystem functioning, and can help inform fisheries management and conservation initiatives. However, few deep-sea food webs have been studied so far in the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-020-04283-1
Abstract: The stingrays Potamotrygon amandae and Potamotrygon falkneri are nonnative species established in the Upper Paraná basin. Although they are widely distributed, few studies on their diets or respective metabolic responses exist. Therefore, the aim was… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10750-020-04303-0
Abstract: Little consensus exists on the role of food partitioning in the organization of tadpole assemblages. We studied trophic ecology of syntopic tadpoles through the analysis of gut contents, selectivity, and stable isotopes to assess the… read more here.
