Apparent Resource Partitioning and Trophic Structure of Large-Bodied Marine Predators in a Relatively Pristine Seagrass Ecosystem (2013, methodology): “…speciesspecific analyses, we explored overlap in ellipses calculated for the major large-bodied predator groups in Shark Bay: dolphins, large sharks (>1.5 m), small sharks ( 1.5 m), and batoids (data on batoids from Vaudo & Heithaus 2011 with additional samples collected during the present study).”
Stable isotope analysis as a tool for elasmobranch conservation research: a primer for non-specialists (2012, background): “Numerous studies have examined the diet and trophic position of elasmobranchs in a food web context using stable isotope analysis, ranging from investigations of dietary niche overlap in elasmobranch mesopredators (Vaudo and Heithaus 2011), contributions of different primary production sources to co”
Applying stable isotopes to examine food‐web structure: an overview of analytical tools (2012, unknown): “…can cause interpretation problems because the hull area will tend to increase with number of individual samples (Jackson et al., 2011), yet this can be addressed by running bootstrap procedures to ensure sample size is sufficient to characterize fully the isotopic niche (Vaudo & Heithaus, 2011).”
Sizing up the ecological role of sharks as predators (2014, background): “For many estuarine and marine communities, this would suggest that sharks provide a diffuse predator community composed of individuals feeding on similar prey items in a size-based manner (Kinney et al. 2011, Vaudo & Heithaus 2011).”
