Citations in the corpus
- Spatial separation of foraging habitats among New Zealand fur seals (2006, background): “Rapid traversing of nearshore waters is also evident among chick-rearing seabirds (e.g. Gremillet et al. 2004), which implies that these colonial breeding animals cannot rely on nearshore resources, in accordance with the theory of localised depletion (Ashmole 1963, Birt et al. 1987).”
- Ecogeographical rules: elements of a synthesis (2008, background): “, 2005); (3) factors (such as food availability, day length and seasonality; Lack, 1947; Martin, 1987; Ashmole, 1963) that are ultimately concerned with the interactions between resource availability, reproductive effort and mortality; and (4) nest predation rates (Skutch, 1949).”
- Foraging behavior of lactating South American sea lions (Otaria flavescens) and spatial-temporal resource overlap with the Uruguayan fisheries (2013, background): “As with any colonial breeding species there will be local depletion of resources near the colony (Ashmole, 1963), but this local depletion will become worse if the AF or CBTF fisheries operate in this area.”
- Latitudinal variation in avian incubation attentiveness and a test of the food limitation hypothesis (2007, background): “If food is a limiting factor in the tropics and southern regions, as has been suggested (Ashmole 1963; Cody 1966; Owen 1977; Thiollay 1988), then it may influence geographical patterns of attentiveness.”
- An energetic correlate between colony size and foraging effort in seabirds, an example of the Adélie penguinPygoscelis adeliae (2009, background): “Central-place foraging seabirds deplete or reduce the availability of prey around colonies, a fact leading to proposals that the size of such ‘‘halos’’ of available prey ultimately regulates population size (Storer 1952, Ashmole 1963, Birt et al. 1987).”
