Climate change and ocean acidification are altering marine ecosystems and, from a human
perspective, creating both winners and losers. Human responses to these changes are …

The North Bay of Biscay continental shelf is a major French demersal fishery, but little was
known on the trophic food web of its benthic communities. In order to determine the benthic …

Oyster culture structures support a host of epibionts belonging to the same suspension-
feeding guild, which are considered to be potential competitors for food with cultivated …

Stable isotope analysis (SIA) of carbon (δ 13 C) and nitrogen (δ 15 N) was used to analyse
the macrobenthic food web dynamics in the Gulf of Gaeta (Tyrrhenian sea, Central Italy) …

Stable isotope ratios of six size fractions of zooplankton (80 to> 2000 µm) were analyzed
seasonally in 2009–2010 at the SOMLIT site in the Bay of Marseille. Isotopic ratios generally …

Coastal lagoons are often characterized by eutrophic conditions which are known to impair
the structure and functioning of both pelagic and benthic compartments. However, the …

A wide investigation was conducted into the main organic matter (OM) sources supporting
coral reef trophic networks in the lagoon of New Caledonia. Sampling included different reef …

The food web structure and functioning of two north-western Mediterranean lagoons
exhibiting contrasting degrees of eutrophication and marine influences were compared …

Macrozoobenthic assemblages and stable carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) isotope
