• Ontogenetic and seasonal changes in the feeding habits and trophic levels of two small pelagic fish species (2012, background): “Miller et al. (2010) found trophic levels of 2.9 for S. sagax and of 3.1 for E. mordax for the California Current.”

• Linking predators to seasonality of upwelling: Using food web indicators and path analysis to infer trophic connections (2012, background): “Finally, it is thought that upper trophic level species are controlled by a balance of these ‘‘bottom-up’’ trophic effects and other biological interactions, such as predation and competition, which may exert ‘‘top-down’’ control on the mid-trophic levels of food webs (Cury et al., 2000; Suryan et a”
• Food web dynamics in the Scotia Sea in summer: A stable isotope study (2012, background): “Dietary plasticity and omnivory is a common conclusion from isotopic studies of marine ecosystems (e.g. Bode et al., 2003, Jacob, 2005; Richoux and Froneman, 2009; Miller et al., 2010).”
• Interannual variability in the Northern California Current food web structure: Changes in energy flow pathways and the role of forage fish, euphausiids, and jellyfish (2012, background): “In a combined analysis of stomach content and tissue isotopic enrichment, Miller et al. (2010) noted a high level of omnivory among most pelagic fishes in the NCC, largely due to the prevalence of euphausiids as prey.”
