Abstract:
This dataset presents bulk stable isotopes (13-carbon and 15-nitrogen) of salps and one hyperiid amphipod collected near the Chatham Rise on the SalpPOOP (TAN1810) cruise. The cruise focus was on studying the impact of salp blooms and marine biogeochemistry and food webs. Stable isotopes were measured to investigate trophic positions of salps and hyperiid amphipods. Samples were collected by bongo tows and individual organisms were picked from the samples and frozen. On land their guts were dissected out. Bodies were run for stable isotope analyses and (in some cases) guts were also analyzed separately. Samples were analyzed for bulk stable isotopes at the UC Davis stable isotope facility.
