First application of quantitative fatty acid signature analysis in bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) and its implications for diet estimation in free-ranging cetaceans

IntroductionQuantitative fatty acid signature analysis (QFASA) can provide species level diet estimates integrated over weeks to months, which are valuable for assessing health, ecological roles, and disturbance vulnerability. However, the approach has seen limited use in cetaceans. Calibration coef...
