Determining the trophic levels of Tarr Inlet, Glacier Bay, Alaska by measuring the isotopic enrichment of 15N
This study used nitrogen isotope levels to estimate trophic levels, thus providing information about the food webs in Glacier Bay. Commercial fishing is being phased out in the bay and it is assumed that food webs will be altered as a result.
