Nursery habitat use and foraging ecology of the brown stingray Dasyatis lata determined from stomach contents, bulk and amino acid stable isotopes (2011, unknown): “…of individuals among all prey categories] × 100) and percent weight ( , [weight of individuals in a prey category/total weight of individuals among all prey categories] × 100) were calculated for each sample to provide mean and variability estimates (Biz- zarro et al. 2007, Chipps & Garvey 2007).”
Diet of invasive lionfish on hard bottom reefs of the Southeast USA: insights from stomach contents and stable isotopes (2011, methodology): “Values of < 10% CV are a general benchmark for adequate precision in age and growth studies (Campana 2001, Bizzarro et al. 2007).”
Diet of young Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in eastern and western Atlantic foraging grounds (2010, methodology): “To assess whether a sufficient number of samples had been analyzed to capture prey diversity, the slope of the final four endpoints for each prey curve was compared to a slope of zero using a Student’s t-test (Bizzarro et al. 2007) and Holm-adjusted P-values (Holm 1979).”
Feeding ecology of invasive lionfish (Pterois volitans) in the Bahamian archipelago (2009, methodology): “…the cumulative number of novel prey was calculated and sufficiency of sample size was assessed statistically using the linear regression method of Bizzarro et al. (2007) that compares the slope from a regression of the last four stomach samples to a slope of zero using a Student’s t-test of…”
Apparent Resource Partitioning and Trophic Structure of Large-Bodied Marine Predators in a Relatively Pristine Seagrass Ecosystem (2013, methodology): “We considered TA to be adequately sampled if the slope of a linear regression on the final 4 endpoints of the curve re - lating sample size to TA was not significantly different from zero (Bizzarro et al. 2007).”
Feeding ecology of demersal elasmobranchs from the shelf and slope off the Balearic Sea (western Mediterranean) (2011, background): “The lack of significant dietary differences among comparably-sized shelf skates suggests that inter-specific resource competition was not intense (Bizzarro et al., 2007).”
Dietary Niche Overlap in a Nearshore Elasmobranch Mesopredator Community (2011, methodology): “Like many fish species, such shifts have been observed in batoids using stomach content analysis (e.g. Bizzarro et al. 2007, Marshall et al. 2008).”
Diversity in trophic interactions of green sea turtles Chelonia mydas on a relatively pristine coastal foraging ground (2011, unknown): “We considered the sample size to be adequate if a regression through the final 4 points of the rarefaction curve failed to display a slope significantly different from 0 (Bizzarro et al. 2007).”
