Feeding ecology of harbour porpoises: stable isotope analysis of carbon and nitrogen in muscle and bone

Article 2012 EN Green

Harbour porpoises are the most common small cetaceans in the North Sea and Dutch coastal waters. To study their trophic level and feeding location, stable carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios (δ13C and δ15N) were analysed in muscle and bone samples collected from 157 porpoises stranded along the Dutch coast (2006–2008). In addition, samples from 30 prey species were analysed. Prey samples showed hig…
