Marine diatoms sustain growth of bivalves in a Mediterranean lagoon (2012, background): “Stable isotopes have been used to trace the food sources of benthic bivalve molluscs in a number of different types of coastal ecosystems (Allan et al., 2010; Dang et al., 2009; Dubois et al., 2007; Herman et al., 2000; Kang et al., 1999; Kang et al., 2006; Kharlamenko et al., 2001; 3 Lebreton et…”
Diet of whale sharks Rhincodon typus inferred from stomach content and signature fatty acid analyses (2013, background): “…al. (2001) Holland et al. (1990), Nichols et al. (2003), Jeffs et al.

Addressing assumptions: variation in stable isotopes and fatty acids of marine macrophytes can confound conclusions of food web studies (2013, background): “The literature often impli - citly assumes that the temporal variation of food sources is not enough to significantly affect interpretation of MSI and FA signature analyses (Kharlamenko et al. 2001, Guest et al. 2008, Allan et al. 2010).”
