Menhaden occupy an important position in estuarine food webs, thus the rate processes associated with their feeding are critical to the ecosystem management of fishery and ecological resources. Atlantic menhaden feed on a wide range of plankton, the size and food quality of which change ontogenetica
This article describes potentially disastrous outcomes associated with failure to determine when nasally inserted feeding tubes are improperly positioned. It also presents information that is important for risk managers to consider when developing protocols for testing placement of newly inserted fe
