Differential reliance on aquatic prey subsidies influences mercury exposure in riparian arachnids and songbirds
Abstract Cross‐ecosystem subsidies move substantial amounts of nutrients between ecosystems. Emergent aquatic insects are a particularly important prey source for riparian songbirds but may also move aquatic contaminants, such as mercury (Hg), to riparian food webs. While many studies focus on speci...
