  • Fatty acids as dietary tracers in benthic food webs 

    Kelly, Jennifer R., and Robert E. Scheibling. 2011. "Fatty acids as dietary tracers in benthic food webs." Marine Ecology Progress Series 446: 1-22. doi:10.3354/meps09559
    Fatty acid (FA) analysis is a well-established tool for studying trophic interactions in marine habitats. However, its application to benthic food webs poses 2 particular challenges. First, unlike pelagic zooplankton, ...
  • Pacific Salmon in Hot Water: Applying Aerobic Scope Models and Biotelemetry to Predict the Success of Spawning Migrations 

    Farrell, A. P., S. G. Hinch, S. J. Cooke, DA Patterson, et al. 2008. "Pacific Salmon in Hot Water: Applying Aerobic Scope Models and Biotelemetry to Predict the Success of Spawning Migrations." Physiological and Biochemical Zoology 81(6): 697-708. doi:10.1086/592057
    Concern over global climate change is widespread, but quantifying relationships between temperature change and animal fitness has been a challenge for scientists. Our approach to this challenge was to study migratory ...
