Temporal variation in body composition (C : N) helps explain seasonal patterns of zooplankton δ13C (2005, background): “…the seasonal and interspecific variation in zooplankton lipid content, may help explain the seasonal variation in the d13C of pelagic zooplankton (Grey et al., 2001; Bastviken et al., 2003; Pace et al., 2004), and variation of zooplankton d13C among lakes (Karlsson et al., 2003; Vadeboncoeur et…”
An assessment of sample processing methods for stable isotope analyses of marine food webs (2006, background): “, 2003; Riera and Hubas, 2003; Yokohama and Ishihi, 2003), and others do not use this process (Jennings et al., 1997; Grey et al., 2001).”
Ferox Trout (Salmo trutta) as ''Russian dolls'': complementary gut content and stable isotope analyses of the Loch Ness foodweb (2002, methodology): “Therefore, despite 40% of zooplankton carbon being derived from allochthonous sources over an entire annual cycle (Grey et al., 2001), charr biomass appears to be mainly accumulated during summer, and therefore is predominantly autochthonous in origin.”
Does terrestrial organic carbon subsidize the planktonic food web in a clear‐water lake? (2007, background): “Studies of ambient 13C in zooplankton have indicated significant allochthonous support of zooplankton in both large and small lakes (Meili et al. 1996; Grey et al. 2001).”
Combined stable isotope and gut contents analysis of food webs in plant‐dominated, shallow lakes (2003, result): “Aquatic primary producers in Bluestone Plantation Lake were (15)N-enriched (d(15)N > 11&) relative to the other lakes and previously published results (e.g. Yoshioka et al., 1994; Hecky & Hesslein, 1995; Yoshii, 1999; Grey et al., 2001).”
Effect of nutrition on fatty acid profiles of riverine, lacustrine, and aquaculture-raised salmonids of pre-alpine habitats (2010, background): “In lakes, there are seasonal shifts in plankton populations (Mazumder et al., 1990; Grey et al., 2001; Gladyshev et al., 2007) as well as in the preferred diet of fish.”
Seasonal shifts between autochthonous and allochthonous carbon contributions to zooplankton diets in a subarctic lake (2011, methodology): “For this study, we applied an enrichment factor of 0.4%, as has been suggested for oligotrophic lakes (Grey et al. 2001).”
Autochthonous and allochthonous contributions to mesozooplankton diet in a tidal river and estuary: Integrating carbon isotope and fatty acid constraints (2009, background): “Limnologists have extensively investigated the relative importance of allochthonous vs. autochthonous carbon resources for lacustrine food webs using stable isotopes at natural abundance (Grey et al. 2001) as well as deliberate tracers (Pace et al. 2004).”
Nutritional quality of food resources for zooplankton (Daphnia) in a tidal freshwater system (Sacramento‐San Joaquin River Delta) (2002, result): “This result complements findings from carbon tracer studies (e.g., Finlay 2001; Grey et al. 2001) by showing the importance of phytoplankton in detritus-rich systems not just as a quantitative carbon source but also in regulating consumer growth.”
