Influence of river discharge on zooplankton diet in the Godavari estuary (Bay of Bengal, Indian Ocean)

In estuaries, detrital (i.e., non-living) organic matter (OM) contributes significantly to the particulate organic matter (POM) pool and we hypothesize that it may be a major source of estuarine zooplankton diet. To test this hypothesis, the isotopic composition of carbon (d13C) and nitrogen (d15N)...
