Benthic primary producers are key to sustain the Wadden Sea food web: stable carbon isotope analysis at landscape scale
Coastal food webs can be supported by local benthic or pelagic primary producers and by
the import of organic matter. Distinguishing between these energy sources is essential for …

Flyway evolution is too fast to be explained by the modern synthesis: proposals for an 'extended'evolutionary research agenda
T Piersma - Journal of Ornithology, 2011 - Springer
In this paper, I argue that to fully grasp the generation and maintenance of variation in the
migratory phenotypes of (shore-) birds we need to expand our scientific search image and …
