Relative Importance of Habitat Characteristics and Interspecific Relations in Determining Terrestrial Carnivore Occurrence

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018
Carnivores act as top-down regulators in terrestrial ecosystems, and their occurrence and relative abundance is a result of complex interactions between food and habitat availability, human pressure (e.g., trapping, hunting, roadkill), and intraguild ...

The development of a method to determine felinine in body fluids by capillary electrophoresis : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Chemistry at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Ion-exchange, paper-chromatography and high performance liquid chromatography were used in earlier studies for the determination of felinine in biological fluids. These methods were either inadequate and/or need laborious sample pre-treatments.
