Applying stable isotopes to examine food‐web structure: an overview of analytical tools (2012, background): “Largely because of the additional input data, the models often substantially narrow the reported ranges of source pool contributions to consumers (Moore & Semmens, 2008; Moreno et al., 2010).”
From lavage to lipids: Estimating diets of seabirds (2012, unknown): “This isotope can be very useful in segregating pelagic versus inshore or benthic food webs and is very useful for delineating estuarine versus marine habitats (Peterson & Fry 1987, Rubenstein & Hobson 2004, Hebert et al. 2008, Moreno et al. 2010).”
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).”
To fit or not to fit: evaluating stable isotope mixing models using simulated mixing polygons (2013, background): “The literature provides numerous examples of studies using Bayesian mixing models when consumer exclusionmay have been necessary, in both terrestrial (Moreno et al. 2010; Giroux et al. 2012) and marine systems (Cardona et al. 2012;Witteveen et al. 2012).”
Annual and seasonal consistency in the feeding ecology of an opportunistic species, the yellow-legged gull Larus michahellis (2014, methodology): “It is well documented that the pelagic Henslow’s swimming crab Polybius henslowii is an important component of the diet of the yellow-legged gull (Moreno et al. 2009), which, despite its spatial and temporal unpredictability (Munilla 1997), may be the most important marine prey in Iberian Atlantic w”
