Estimating in situ isotopic turnover in Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) muscle and liver tissue
Stable isotope analysis (SIA) is a powerful tool for assessing food webs and diet. However, the underlying assumptions that stable isotope ratios in an organism's tissues reflect that of its present diet may be complicated by isotopic turnover and retention time. Quantification of in situ isoto...
