Contrasting Food Web Dynamics Across Oceanographic Boundaries in Subarctic Pelagic Ecosystems
Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Understanding the structure of pelagic food webs across multiple trophic levels is critical for elucidating species interactions, energy flow, and anthropogenic impacts on production. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the eastern North Pacific pelagic food webs, focusing on the Gulf of Alaska (GoA) during late winter of 2019.
