Trophic position structures physiological trade-offs between metabolic and detoxification pathways in sympatric passerinesTrophic position structures physiological trade-offs between metabolic and detoxification pathways in sympatric passerines [PDF]
Royal Society Open ScienceResource use links ecological context to organismal performance, yet whether dietary breadth or trophic position is more closely associated with physiological state in wild birds remains unclear.

Isotopic niche variation in a higher trophic level ectotherm: highlighting the role of succulent plants in desert food webs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Stable isotope analysis of animal tissues allows description of isotopic niches, whose axes in an n-dimensional space are the isotopic ratios, compared to a standard, of different isotope systems (e.g. δ(13)C, δ(15)N).

Geographic and seasonal variability in the isotopic niche of little auks [PDF]
Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2010 The non-breeding season of seabirds is extremely challenging to study because it is often spent offshore under harsh environmental conditions. We used stable isotope analysis to investigate little auk Alle alle feeding ecology throughout the annual cycle.

Diet overlap and spatial segregation between two neotropical marsupials revealed by multiple analytical approaches. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Species co-existence depends on how organisms utilize their environment and resources. When two sympatric species are similar in some ecological requirements, their coexistence may arise from differences in resource use over time and/or space ...
