• Leatherback turtles as oceanographic indicators: stable isotope analyses reveal a trophic dichotomy between ocean basins (2006, background): “Wallace et al. (2006) hypothesized that environmental stochasticity related to the El Nin˜ o-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) reduces resource availability on EP leatherback foraging grounds, thus rendering EP leatherbacks unable to acquire and allocate sufficient resources to match the size and reprodu”
• Identifying and comparing phases of movement by leatherback turtles using state-space models (2008, background): “It has been hypothesized that the longer interval between nesting years for Pacific than Atlantic leatherback turtles might be caused by resource limitation ( Wallace et al., 2006a ) and that foraging strategies may differ between the two ocean basins (Wallace et al., 2006b).”
