The development of the isotopic niche, an n-dimensional hypervolume (with n being the
number of isotopes) occupied by a population in delta space, has revolutionized the study of …

Stable isotope analysis (SIA) has become a powerful and widely utilised tool in ecological
studies, and more specifically has been used to answer conservation questions regarding …

Rationale The ecological application of stable isotope analysis (SIA) relies on taxa‐and
tissue‐specific stable carbon (Δ 13C) and nitrogen (Δ 15N) isotope discrimination factors …

Stable isotope analyses have become popular in sea turtle literature over the past decade,
with an increasing year-to-year trend in published studies reporting insights into food web …

Abstract The western Mediterranean Sea has traditionally served as a primary foraging
ground for juvenile loggerhead turtles from three distinct regional management units: the …

Loggerhead turtles Caretta caretta use a wide variety of foraging strategies, and some
populations forage in sub-optimal habitats. Different foraging strategies may not be …

Habitat utilization significantly influences the accumulation of chemical pollutants, including
trace elements (TEs), in the tissues of large marine organisms. Previous research has …

Syngnathids are vulnerable ovoviviparous fishes in which males undergo repeated
brooding within a reproductive season. The isotopic effects of diet on both breeders (pooled …

Simple Summary The population of the pipefish Syngnathus acus inhabiting Cíes
