Determining diet is a key prerequisite for understanding species interactions, food web
structure and ecological dynamics. In recent years, there has been considerable …

Northern ecosystems are experiencing some of the most dramatic impacts of global change
on Earth. Rising temperatures, hydrological intensification, changes in atmospheric acid …

Many freshwater systems receive substantial inputs of terrestrial organic matter. Terrestrially
derived dissolved organic carbon (t‐DOC) inputs can modify light availability, the spatial …

Lake ecosystems and the services that they provide to people are profoundly influenced by
dissolved organic matter derived from terrestrial plant tissues. These terrestrial dissolved …

Nanoparticles (NPs) are defined as having at least one external dimension between 1 and
100 nm. Due to their small size, NPs have a large surface area to volume ratio giving them …

Although the study of resource subsidies has emerged as a key topic in both ecosystem and
food web ecology, the dialogue over their role has been limited by separate approaches that …

Inland water ecosystems dynamically process, transport, and sequester carbon. However,
the transport of carbon through aquatic environments has not been quantitatively integrated …

The supply and demand of omega‐3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (ω‐3 HUFA) in natural
ecosystems may lead to resource limitation in a diverse array of animal taxa. Here, we …

The fatty acid (FA) composition of algae is an important determinant of their food quality for
consumers, and FAs can also be used as biomarkers for biochemical and energetic …

While many streams and rivers are dominated by terrestrial inputs of organic carbon, algae
are an important trophic base for stream food webs. However, the nutritional importance of …
