Abstract

Carbon and Nitrogen stable isotope measurements for experimental animals used in laboratory-based experiments collected from the Gulf of Mexico Estuary near Port Aransas, Texas from 2020 to 2022. Laboratory experiments took place at the Fisheries and Mariculture Laboratory of the University of Texas Marine Science Institute from July 2021 to November 2022.

These data were published in Nair et al. (2023).
