A method for investigating population declines of migratory birds using stable isotopes: origins of harvested lesser scaup in North America.
Elucidating geographic locations from where migratory birds are recruited into adult breeding populations is a fundamental but largely elusive goal in conservation biology. This is especially true for species that breed in remote northern areas where field-based demographic assessments are logistica...
