- Habitat connectivity improves reserve performance (2012, background): “Piscivores are important in structuring marine food webs and influence trophic transfers among habitats (Valentine & Heck 2005); piscivore density was determined from species that commonly consume fish (following, Baker & Sheaves 2005).”
- Fish gut content analysis: robust measures of diet composition (2014, methodology): “Despite this protocol, the study of Baker and Sheaves (2005) found 5% of individual guts contained intact, easily separable prey items with no free tissue (Table 2).”
- Communal or competitive? Stable isotope analysis provides evidence of resource partitioning within a communal shark nursery (2011, background): “Teleost tissue samples were taken from the largest captured individuals of the target species in an effort to only sample individuals that had already shifted to a more piscivorous diet (Baker & Sheaves 2005).”
- Consequences of ecological connectivity: the coastal ecosystem mosaic (2009, background): “At a broader scale, a variety of geological (Genin 2004) and oceanographic features (Bakun 2006) produce fronts that are areas of high productivity, retention areas for larvae, and areas of concentration of prey (Acha et al. 2004, Bakun 2006).”
- Stable isotope‐based community metrics as a tool to identify patterns in food web structure in east African estuaries (2014, methodology): “Consumers were separated by taxa (fish vs. invertebrates), and fish were classified into five trophic categories based on the literature (Baker & Sheaves 2005; Blaber 2008; Carrasco, Perissinotto & Nel 2012) and FishBase (www.fishbase.org): phytodetritivores (including species with different…”
- Standardising fish stomach content analysis: The importance of prey condition (2017, background): “The taxonomic resolution to which prey are identified varies considerably among studies (e.g. Elliott, 1967; Baker and Sheaves, 2005; Saunders et al., 2012) and is influenced by a number of factors, including, the objectives of the particular study, the taxonomic knowledge of the prey species, the…”
- Water depth modifies relative predation risk for a motile fish taxon in Bahamian tidal creeks (2007, background): “Water depth has been implicated as a potentially critical variable in determining predation risk for fishes in a number of estuaries, although debate exists over exactly where, when, and for what species depth may be critical (Sheaves 2001; Ellis and Bell 2004; Baker and Sheaves 2005).”
