• Using the power of comparison to explain habitat use and migration strategies of shorebirds worldwide (2007, background): “Red Knots wintering from Georgia to northern Brazil are distinct from the rufa knots wintering in southernmost South America (Baker et al. 2005; Atkinson et al. 2005) and may represent an eastern group of roselaari birds, or an undescribed separate population that co-occurs with rufa knots during…”
• Rates of mass gain and energy deposition in red knot on their final spring staging site is both time‐ and condition‐dependent (2007, background): “Atkinson et al . (2005) showed that there was a clear division in the values of δ”
• Applications of stable isotope analyses to avian ecology (2008, background): “Such applications are by no means restricted to terrestrial birds, and recent work on the migrations of Red Knots Calidris canutus has used SIA to identify variation among the migratory strategies of birds using the western Atlantic flyway (Atkinson et al. 2005).”
