Larvae of the pteropod Cavolinia inflexa exposed to aragonite undersaturation are viable but shell-less (2010, background): “…also an important component of marine food webs, for example, in the high latitudes, they can represent as much as 90% of the total zooplankton and is a major dietary component for zooplankton and higher predators, such as herring, salmon, whale and birds (Hunt et al. 2008; Karnovsky et al. 2008).”
Potential misidentifications of two climate indicator species of the marine arctic ecosystem: Calanus glacialis and C. finmarchicus (2012, background): “These shifts are generally assumed to be directly related to changes in temperature, although the mechanisms are not unequivocal (Kaartvedt 2008).”
Causes and consequences of individual variability and specialization in foraging and migration strategies of seabirds (2017, background): “…stable isotope studies indicate that wintering seabirds can change their diet or widen their trophic niche, since individuals are no longer central-place foragers and are free to select their favoured habitat or prey (Cherel et al. 2007, Karnovsky et al. 2008, Hedd et al. 2010, Harris et al. 2015).”
From lavage to lipids: Estimating diets of seabirds (2012, unknown): “Karnovsky et al. (2008) found that little auks shift their TL up in the fall; their FAs then resembled the signatures of black-legged kittiwakes, and their stomach contents included prey that were found only in those species at that time of year.”
