Temporal variability in the stable carbon and nitrogen isotope values from common mid-trophic level species in the Bering Sea
Analyzing stable isotope values from the tissues of marine consumers is useful for reconstructing animal trophic ecology and movement patterns. However, interpretation of isotopic values from predators can be confounded by variability in the stable isotope values of their prey species, which differ...
