Spatio-temporal stable isotope variation of a benthic primary consumer in a simple food web in a strongly acidic lake

Analysis of aquatic food webs is typically undertaken using carbon and nitrogen stable isotope composition of consumer and producer species. However, the trophic consequences of spatio-temporal variation in the isotope composition of consumers have not been well evaluated. Lake Katanuma, Japan, is h...
