Fatty Acid Signature Data of Potential Yellow-billed Loon Prey in the Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska, 2009-2011
Description
This dataset contains fatty acid data expressed as mass percent of total fatty acids for several species potentially preyed upon by yellow-billed loons. These data were utilized in a quantitative fatty acid signature analysis to estimate the diet of yellow-billed loons nesting on the Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska.
