Ibis, Volume 168, Issue 3, Page 876-889, July 2026.Free‐living birds need to acquire enough food to fulfil their energetic needs, which may require more effort in habitats with less favourable conditions. Therefore, to maintain their necessary energy intake, birds need to adjust their foraging behaviour in response to varying habitat conditions.

Walleye Trophic Position Before and After a Gizzard Shad Extirpation
, 2012 Walleye (Sander vitreus) are an ecologically and recreationally important sport fish species. Reduced growth and condition in walleye can occur when prey availability is limited.

On the gizzards of grazing birds [PDF]
Abstracts of the Papers Printed in the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of LondonAbstract Since the organs of digestion in those quadrupeds which live wholly upon grass differ considerably in their construction from those of other quadrupeds, and in greater or less degree according to the different qualities of their food, it was natural to expect some correspondent peculiarities in the gizzards of those birds ...

Transfer quantification and surface changes of microplastics along the earthworm-chicken food chain
Cambridge Prisms: PlasticsMicroplastic (MP) pollution in terrestrial ecosystems is attracting global attention. The transfer of MPs in terrestrial food chains remains poorly understood, particularly in poultry systems.

Feeding Preferences of Omnivorous Gizzard Shad as Influenced by Fish Size and Zooplankton Density [PDF]
, 1996 In Ohio reservoirs, larval gizzard shad Dorosoma cepedianum less than 30 mm total length consume only zooplankton but frequently switch to detritus as they grow longer than 30 mm. However, in laboratory studies without detritus, gizzard shad longer than

, 1982 1. Nucleotides which are known to be poor substrates for myosin kinase (ITP, GTP, UTP and CTP) are poor relative to ATP at producing Ca2+-sensitive superprecipitation or tension in smooth-muscle-derived experimental systems.

Development and application of a bioenergetics model for gizzard shad
, 2002 I developed a bioenergetics model for gizzard shad using a combination of laboratory and literature derived parameter estimates. I estimated allometric intercepts and slopes for consumption (CA = 0.8081, CB = -0.30) and respiration (RA = 0.005, RB- -0.21)
