• Stable Isotope Trajectory Analysis (SITA): A new approach to quantify and visualize dynamics in stable isotope studies 

      Sturbois, Anthony; Cucherousset, Julien; De Cáceres, Miquel; Desroy, Nicolas; Riera, Pascal; Carpentier, Alexandre; Quillien, Nolwenn; Grall, Jacques; Espinasse, Boris Dristan; Cherel, Yves; Schaal, Gauthier (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-16)
      Ecologists working with stable isotopes have to deal with complex datasets including temporal and spatial replication, which makes the analysis and the representation of patterns of change challenging, especially at high resolution. Due to the lack of a commonly accepted conceptual framework in stable isotope ecology, the analysis and the graphical representation of stable isotope spatial and ...
    • Temporal dynamics in zooplankton δ13C and δ15N isoscapes for the North Atlantic Ocean: Decadal cycles, seasonality, and implications for predator ecology 

      Espinasse, Boris Dristan; Sturbois, Anthony; Basedow, Sünnje Linnéa; Hélaouët, Pierre; Johns, David G.; Newton, Jason; Trueman, Clive N. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-17)
      The limited amount of ecological data covering offshore parts of the ocean impedes our ability to understand and anticipate the impact of anthropogenic stressors on pelagic marine ecosystems. Isoscapes, i.e., spatial models of the distribution of stable isotope ratios, have been employed in the recent years to investigate spatio-temporal patterns in biogeochemical process and ecological responses. ...
