Toward a mechanistic understanding of trophic structure: inferences from simulating stable isotope ratios

Stable isotope ratios (SIR) are widely used to estimate food-web trophic levels (TLs). We built systems dynamic N-biomass-based models of different levels of complexity, containing explicit descriptions of isotope fractionation and of trophic level. The values of δ(15)N and TLs, as independent and e...
