issue that may be contributing to the declines of leatherbacks and impairing their recovery is …

Bioko Island's southern beaches are important nesting sites for marine turtles in the Gulf of
Guinea region. In this study, we present data on the 4 species of sea turtles nesting on 5 …

Until recently, our ability to implement and assess spatial marine management approaches
has been limited by a lack of information regarding processes that bind marine ecosystems …

Notwithstanding the potential applications of stable isotopes in feeding and migration
studies, the simultaneous influence of diet, foraging behavior and spatial variation on the …

Understanding the causes and consequences of variability in trophic status is important for
interpreting population dynamics and for identifying important habitats for protected species …

Through its ability to address complex ecological questions and the possibility of analysing
large sample sizes to understand population‑level processes, the use of stable isotope …

Population assessments conducted at reproductive sites of migratory species necessitate
understanding the foraging-area origins of breeding individuals. Without this information …

Organismal movement can take on a variety of spatial and temporal forms. These forms
depend in part on the type and scale of environment experienced as well as the internal …

Birds may change their diet and foraging habitat during or after migration. Dunlins Calidris
alpina alpina breed in the tundra of northern Europe and Russia where they feed exclusively …

A combination of δ 13 C and δ 15 N isotope ratios, capture-mark-recapture and satellite
telemetry data were used to investigate the foraging locations supporting nesting …
