Nutrients cause consolidation of soil carbon flux to small proportion of bacterial community
Nature Communications, 2021 The fate of soil carbon depends on microbial processes, but whether different microbial taxa have individualistic effects on carbon fluxes is unknown.

Seasonal changes in the δ13C and δ15N signatures of the Lago Maggiore pelagic food web
Journal of Limnology, 2011 Seasonal variation in the relative contributions of littoral and pelagic food sources to the diets of open-water zooplankton and subsequent changes in their trophic positions were investigated with carbon and nitrogen Stable Isotope Analysis (SIA).

Terrestrial and fluvial carbon fluxes in a tropical watershed: Nyong basin, Cameroon [PDF]
, 2009 The Nyong watershed, with an area of 27 800 km2 and a mean annual discharge of 390 m3 s−1, is the second largest river in Cameroon. The Nyong watershed serves as an outstanding study area for the examination of carbon fluxes in humid tropical ...

Stable Carbon Isotopes in Zea mays [PDF]
, 2018 SummaryThe increasing demand for food production and predicted climate change scenarios highlight the need for improvements in crop sustainability. The efficient use of water will become increasingly important for rainfed agricultural crops even in fertile regions that have historically received ample precipitation. Improvements in water-use efficiency

Continuum discretized BCS approach for weakly bound nuclei [PDF]
, 2016 The Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) formalism is extended by including the single-particle continuum in order to analyse the evolution of pairing in an isotopic chain from stability up to the drip line.

Determining trophic niche width: a novel approach using stable isotope analysis [PDF]
, 2004 1. Although conceptually robust, it has proven difficult to find practical measures of niche width that are simple to obtain, yet provide an adequate descriptor of the ecological position of the population examined. 2.

Dry season limnological conditions and basin geology exhibit complex relationships with δ13C and δ15N of carbon sources in four Neotropical floodplains. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Studies in freshwater ecosystems are seeking to improve understanding of carbon flow in food webs and stable isotopes have been influential in this work.
