We used carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios as markers of food source connections and trophic position to evaluate whether benthic food-web structure varied among water …
Abstract The Arctic Ocean is characterized by pronounced seasonality in the quantity and quality of organic matter exported from the surface ocean. While it is well established that …
The Arctic region faces a warming rate that is more than twice the global average. Sea-ice loss, increase in precipitation and freshwater discharge, changes in underwater light, and …

We analyzed trophic linkages in the northeast Chukchi Sea shelf based on the stable carbon and nitrogen isotopic analysis of 39 species collected in 2009 and 2010. To decipher …
Determining food web architecture and its seasonal cycles is a precondition for making predictions about Antarctic marine biodiversity under varying climate change scenarios …

The food-web structure and seasonality of the dominant taxa of benthopelagic megafauna (fishes and decapods) on the middle slope of the Catalan Sea (Balearic Basin, NW …
Seasonality, quality and quantity of food resources strongly affect fitness and survival of polar fauna. Most research conducted in polar areas has been carried out during the …
