Organic Carbon and Nitrogen Isoscapes of Reef Corals and Algal Symbionts: Relative Influences of Environmental Gradients and Heterotrophy

Organic Carbon and Nitrogen Isoscapes of Reef Corals and Algal Symbionts: Relative Influences of Environmental Gradients and Heterotrophy

The elemental (C/N) and stable isotopic (δ<sup>13</sup>C, δ<sup>15</sup>N) compositions and compound-specific δ<sup>15</sup>N values of amino acids (δ<sup>15</sup>N<sub>AA</sub>) were evaluated for coral holobionts as diagnostic tools to de...
