Stable isotope analysis provides a powerful tool to identify the energy sources which fuel
consumers, to understand trophic interactions and to infer consumer trophic position (TP), an …

Stable isotope analysis is one of the most widely used techniques to estimate trophic
position and provides fundamental insight into the structure and management of ecological …

The stable isotopes of nitrogen (δ15N) and carbon (δ13C) provide powerful tools for
estimating the trophic positions of and carbon flow to consumers in food webs; however, the …

Over the last few decades, the use of stable isotope ratios in ecological studies has
increased greatly, most notably in the area of trophic ecology and food webs (Peterson and …

Stable isotope analysis has emerged as one of the primary means for examining the
structure and dynamics of food webs, and numerous analytical approaches are now …

Stable isotope mixing models (SIMMs) are an important tool used to study species' trophic
ecology. These models are dependent on, and sensitive to, the choice of trophic …

Stable isotope analysis is often used to identify the relative contributions of various food
resources to a consumer's diet. Some Bayesian isotopic mixing models now incorporate …

Stable isotope analysis (SIA) has proven to be a useful tool in reconstructing diets,
characterizing trophic relationships, elucidating patterns of resource allocation, and …

Stable isotope mixing models are increasingly used to quantify consumer diets, but may be
misused and misinterpreted. We address major challenges to their effective application …

Bayesian mixing model analyses of resource and consumer stable isotope composition are
commonly used to infer elemental, energetic, and trophic pathways in aquatic and terrestrial …
