Using stable isotope (δ13c, δ15n) values from feces and breath to infer shorebird diets

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Tomohiro Kuwae from the Yokosuka, u20110826, Japan have published the paper: Using stable isotope (u03b413C, u03b415N) values from feces and breath to infer shorebird diets, in the Journal: nutrients. Here, we measured u03b413C and u03b415N from feces and u03b413C of breath from captive Red-necked Stints (Calidris ruficollis) and 26 species of wild-caught migratory shorebirds (n = 259 individuals) and compared them against isotopic values
  • what: The authors investigated isotopic linkages between diet and feces, breath, feathers, and blood under diets differing in isotopic values of macronutrients using captive and wild shorebirds. The overall . . .
