Polymodal foraging in adult female loggerheads (Caretta caretta) (2010, background): “We know of no data that indicate that loggerheads that nest in Florida move into the North Carolina estuarine complex from which the stable isotope data are derived (Wallace et al. 2009).”
Stable isotopes confirm a foraging dichotomy in juvenile loggerhead sea turtles (2010, methodology): “The following procedures were conducted on each turtle: 1) collection of a 5 cc blood sample from the dorsal cervical sinus for stable isotope analysis (SIA) (Wallace et al., 2009); 2) measured for standard straight and curved carapace lengths (SCL and CCL; and 3)), checked for tags and marked new t”
Trophic ecology of green sea turtles in a highly urbanized bay: Insights from stable isotopes and mixing models (2011, unknown): “To date, stable isotope mixing models have been applied in studies of sea turtles (McClellan et al., 2010; Wallace et al., 2009), marine fishes (Benstead et al., 2006), and waterfowl and seabirds (Inger et al., 2010a; Moreno et al., 2010).”
Migratory dichotomy and associated phenotypic variation in marine turtles revealed by satellite tracking and stable isotope analysis (2011, background): “4a) is that this turtle forages at a different trophic level, possibly eating discarded fish (Tomás et al. 2001, Wallace et al. 2009) in addition to the common benthic invertebrate diet of loggerheads (Bjorndal 2003).”
