Quantifying capital versus income breeding: New promise with stable isotope measurements of individual amino acids

John P. Whiteman et al.

Summary: Capital breeders accumulate nutrients before egg development to support offspring, while income breeders rely on local nutrients consumed during offspring development. Analyzing amino acid isotope values can provide insights into nutrient allocation in avian reproduction.

Land-use change erodes trophic redundancy in tropical forest streams: Evidence from amino acid stable isotope analysis

Kenny W. J. Chua et al.

Summary: Studies have shown that food chain length is determined by interactions between species richness, ecosystem size, and resource availability. While impacts of land-use change on stream food chains were found to be limited in the short term, the potential loss of trophic redundancy implies increasing vulnerability of streams to future disturbances with ongoing land conversion.

Dietary protein content and digestibility influences discrimination of amino acid nitrogen isotope values in a terrestrial omnivorous mammal

John P. Whiteman et al.

Summary: Ecologists determine the delta N-15 values of amino acids in animal tissue to reflect trophic position in a food web. The effects of dietary protein on Delta N-15(T-S) and on TDFT-S varied by amino acid but were consistent between variables. High dietary protein may result in greater Delta N-15(Consumer-Diet) values in bulk muscle tissue.

Telemetry-validated nitrogen stable isotope clocks identify ocean-to-estuarine habitat shifts in mobile organisms

Oliver N. Shipley et al.

Summary: By utilizing nitrogen stable isotope clocks, researchers were able to predict the time since immigration and timing of habitat shifts in migratory species like juvenile sand tiger sharks. Their study showed that these sharks predominantly arrived to estuarine habitats between June and July, with some individuals arriving as early as mid-May. The isotopically inferred arrival estimates were validated through comparison with acoustically tracked individuals, indicating the reliability of this approach for estimating time of arrival into new habitats.

Offshore pelagic subsidies dominate carbon inputs to coral reef predators

C. Skinner et al.

Summary: Coral reef food webs are heavily subsidized by planktonic production, with offshore pelagic sources playing a significant role in sustaining reef predators. This highlights the importance of allochthonous energetic subsidies throughout the reef ecosystem.

Dietary and reproductive biomarkers in a generalist apex predator reveal differences in nutritional ecology across life stages

Bianca de Sousa Rangel et al.

Summary: This study investigated the nutritional status and trophic dynamics of female tiger sharks across different life stages using non-lethal methods. Results showed that female tiger sharks adjusted their diet and fatty acid metabolism depending on their reproductive context, suggesting changes in their nutritional requirements associated with reproductive state. These findings provide insights into the expected changes in nutritional and trophic markers across life stages of female tiger sharks.

Quantifying spatial variation in isotopic baselines reveals size-based feeding in a model estuarine predator: implications for trophic studies in dynamic ecotones

Philip Matich et al.

Summary: Nitrogen stable isotopes (delta N-15) are often used to estimate trophic position in ecological studies, but the interpretation may be affected if isotopic baselines vary. This study tested the effects of using stable versus spatially variable delta N-15 baselines on estimating the trophic position of juvenile bull sharks and found that spatial variability in baselines can result in different trophic position estimates. It highlights the importance of considering variability in isotopic baselines in studies using stable isotopes to assess trophic ecology.
