Title Introduced Sport Fish and Fish Conservation in a Novel Food Web: Evidence of Predatory Impact
Creator Landom, Kevin Lee
Description This study addressed a fundamental question in applied ecology and conservation; what is the predatory impact of introduced piscivorous sport fish on imperiled native fish populations? More specifically, which of many introduced species and size-classes represent the greatest threats and should be targeted for control? In order to explore this important question, an integrated analysis of stable isotopes, quantified observed diet analysis, and stable isotope mass-balance models were used to...
