A gulf-wide synoptic isoscape of zooplankton isotope ratios reveals the importance of nitrogen fixation in supporting secondary production in the central Gulf of Mexico

Oscar Gabriel Hernandez-Sanchez et al.

Summary: A synoptic gulf-wide isoscape of carbon and nitrogen isotopes in the Gulf of Mexico based on mesozooplankton was used to calculate regional contributions of dissolved inorganic nitrogen sources. A striking latitudinal gradient was found in the nitrogen isotopes of zooplankton, with highest values in the northern shelf and lowest values in the central oligotrophic gulf. Nitrogen fixation was identified as an important source of new nitrogen in oceanic regions, while denitrification and inflow of heavy nitrogen from the Mississippi-Atchafalaya river system contributed to high nitrogen isotopes in the northern shelf.

Trophic Dynamics and Feeding Ecology of Skipjack Tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) off Eastern and Western Taiwan

Yun-Chen Chang et al.

Summary: The skipjack tuna is a mesopredator fish species with seasonal abundance in waters off Taiwan. This study used stomach content analysis and stable isotope analysis to evaluate the feeding ecology of skipjack tuna in different regions off Taiwan. The results showed that skipjack tuna is a generalist predator, but its diet composition varied between western and eastern Taiwan. The study also found that the estimated trophic position of skipjack tuna was slightly higher in western Taiwan, and that the size dynamics of predator-prey relationships differed between the two regions.
