Trophic structure and food resources of epipelagic and mesopelagic fishes in the N orth P acific S ubtropical G yre ecosystem inferred from nitrogen isotopic compositions
Abstract
We used bulk tissue δ 13 C and δ 15 N values and δ 15 N values of individual amino acids (AA) to characterize the trophic structure of a pelagic fish assemblage from the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre (NPSG) ecosystem. We focus on energy flow between fishes inhabiting distinct epipelagic, mesopelagic, and upper bathypelagic habitats and on predatory fish foraging across and within these depth habitats. Trophic positions (TPs) estimated from a...
