• Nitrogen and carbon isotope values of individual amino acids: a tool to study foraging ecology of penguins in the Southern Ocean (2009, methodology): “Instead, the spatial variation in the isotopic baseline is inferred by knowledge of the local oceanography and from previous studies that characterized variations in the isotopic baseline from isotopic analyses of, e.g., particulate organic matter (POM) or zooplankton (Cherel & Hobson 2007, Menard ”
• Stable isotopic evidence for trophic groupings and bio-regionalization of predators and their prey in oceanic waters off eastern Australia (2009, background): “overlapped in length and area with yellowfin tuna in the Indian Ocean had a d 15 N 0.7‐2.8% higher than the latter ( Menard et al. 2007 ).”
• Resource partitioning within a tropical seabird community: new information from stable isotopes (2008, background): “Accordingly, the δ13C values of large predatory fish from the tropical western Indian Ocean (where Europa Island is located) show little variation over a broad latitudinal zone (Ménard et al. 2007).”
• Ecological niche segregation within a community of sympatric dolphins around a tropical island (2011, background): “Niche segregation 72 has been investigated in a number of top marine predator communities, including large teleost 73 fish (Potier et al. 2004, Ménard et al. 2007), sharks (Estrada et al. 2003, Domi et al. 2005, 74 Papastamatiou et al., 2006), seabirds (Ridoux 1994, Cherel et al. 2008, Jaeger…”
• Food-web inferences of stable isotope spatial patterns in copepods and yellowfin tuna in the pelagic eastern Pacific Ocean (2010, background): “Ménard et al. (2007) found a significant effect of latitude on the d 15 N values of yellowfin tuna, and concluded that yellowfin tuna is a relatively resident species at the time scale of tissue isotopic turnover.”
• Feeding ecology and niche segregation in oceanic top predators off eastern Australia (2010, background): “Latitudinal differences in feeding ecology are known for a range of pelagic fish predators (e.g. Ménard et al. 2007, Romanov et al. 2008).”
• Trace me if you can: the use of intrinsic biogeochemical markers in marine top predators (2012, background): “Finally, the tissues provide an overall biogeochemical fingerprint to identify non-breeding areas (Figure 2d), to distinguish between resident and immigrant individuals in a specific area (Herman et al. 2005; Ménard et al. 2007; Graham et al. 2010), to identify interspecific and intersexual segregat”
