Sympagic-pelagic-benthic coupling in Arctic and Atlantic waters around Svalbard revealed by stable isotopic and fatty acid tracers

Stable isotope and fatty acid trophic markers (FATMs) were used to assess carbon flow and trophic structures of sympagic, pelagic and benthic communities in high-Arctic Svalbard. Three regions were sampled: Northwest Svalbard - dominated by Atlantic water (AtW) and limited seasonal sea ice; Northern...
