Foraging behavior of northern elephant seals and mercury concentrations in blood and muscle
We quantified variables for the full foraging trip (short and long foraging trip) to describe foraging behavior of northern elephant seals, using geography, diving behavior, and stable isotopes (carbon and nitrogen). Most seals were weighed upon recovery. If not, then RecoveryMassEstimated was recor...
