    • Predator–prey interactions in the Arctic: DNA metabarcoding reveals that nestling diet of snow buntings reflects arthropod seasonality 

      Stolz, Christian; Varpe, Øystein; Ims, Rolf Anker; Sandercock, Brett Kevin; Stokke, Bård Gunnar; Fossøy, Frode (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2023-07-06)
