The cycle of nitrogen in river systems: sources, transformation, and flux

X ** with too much variation
AC Parnell, R Inger, S Bearhop, AL Jackson - PloS one, 2010 - journals.plos.org
Background Stable isotope analysis is increasingly being utilised across broad areas of
ecology and biology. Key to much of this work is the use of mixing models to estimate the …

Stable isotopes reveal that fungal residues contribute more to mineral-associated organic matter pools than plant residues

S Klink, AB Keller, AJ Wild, VL Baumert, M Gube… - Soil Biology and …, 2022 - Elsevier
We still lack crucial knowledge about the contribution of plant vs. microbial residues to
specific SOM pools, particularly the relative contribution of arbuscular (AM), ectomycorrhizal …

Body shrinkage due to Arctic warming reduces red knot fitness in tropical wintering range

JA Van Gils, S Lisovski, T Lok, W Meissner… - Science, 2016 - science.org
Reductions in body size are increasingly being identified as a response to climate warming.
Here we present evidence for a case of such body shrinkage, potentially due to malnutrition …

[HTML][HTML] Geochemistry, stable isotopes and statistic tools to estimate threshold and source of nitrate in groundwater (Sardinia, Italy)

R Biddau, E Dore, S Da Pelo, M Lorrai, P Botti, M Testa… - Water Research, 2023 - Elsevier
Abstract In the European Union, nitrate vulnerable zone (NVZ) should be designed for the
mitigation of nitrate (NO 3−) contamination caused by agricultural practices. Before …

Estimating the diets of animals using stable isotopes and a comprehensive Bayesian mixing model

JB Hopkins III, JM Ferguson - PLoS one, 2012 - journals.plos.org
Using stable isotope mixing models (SIMMs) as a tool to investigate the foraging ecology of
animals is gaining popularity among researchers. As a result, statistical methods are rapidly …
