Spatial segregation contrasting dietary overlap: niche partitioning of two sympatric alcids during shifting resource availability
J Gulka, RA Ronconi, GK Davoren - Marine Biology, 2019 - Springer
Interspecific interactions help to shape individual-and population-level dynamics. As such,
similar species breeding sympatrically are expected to have a high potential for competition …
