Figure 5. QFASA estimates using the Reduced A, B, Dietary, Extended Dietary fatty acid (FA) subsets
for Diets 1, 2, and 3 at Days 0, 21 and 50 for spectacled and Steller’s eiders. Species-specific calibration
coefficients (CCs) were used in the model. Common murre CCs were also used with the Extended
Dietary FA subset for comparison. Dietary and Extended Dietary FA subsets and common murre CCs
from Iverson et al. (2007). Actual diets consumed for spectacled eiders Diet 1 (Day 0): 88% Mazuri, 3%
krill, 4% silverside, 1% clam, 4% mussel; Diet 2 (Day 21): 44% Mazuri, 56% krill,; Diet 3 (Day 50): 48%
Mazuri, 52% silverside. Actual diets consumed for Steller’s eiders Diet 1: 88% Mazuri, 1% krill, 3%
silverside 1% clam, 7% mussel; Diet 2: 34% Mazuri, 66% krill; Diet 3: 34% Mazuri, 66% silverside.
