Estimates of carbon turnover rates in the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus (Selenka) using stable isotope analysis: the role of metabolism and growth
2012
Marine Ecology Progress Series
Stable isotope analysis is increasingly being used to determine the trophic relationships of aquatic ecosystems. Most ecological and biological conclusions from isotope analysis are based on the assumption that the tissues of the respective consumers are in equilibrium with the potential food sources. Such an assumption, however, is not always validated in individual field studies. Hence, knowledge of the stable isotope turnover rates for the experimental organisms is fundamental for
