The planktonic food web in the Gulf of Naples based on the analysis of carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios

Plankton play a key role in marine food webs by producing and transferring organic matter and energy to higher trophic levels. To define the trophic structure and interactions within the planktonic communities in the Gulf of Naples, we determined carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios in particul...
