| climate change alters the trophic niche of a declining apex marine predator. | changes in the world's oceans have altered nutrient flow, and affected the viability of predator populations when prey species become unavailable. these changes are integrated into the tissues of apex predators over space and time and can be quantified using stable isotopes in the inert feathers of historical and contemporary avian specimens. we measured δ(13) c and δ(15) n values in flesh-footed shearwaters (puffinus carneipes) from western and south australia from 1936-2011. the flesh-footed s ... | 2014 | 24615959 |
