1 Zoology /12/ Liège Seasonal sampling and stable isotopes use to delineate seagrass phytodetritus macrofauna trophic ecology: baseline variation or actual diet change? François REMY, Thibaud Mascart, Patrick Dauby, Sylvie Gobert, Gilles Lepoint *Contact: francois.remy@ulg.ac.be
2 What is «exported macrophytodetritus accumulation»? Posidonia oceanica seagrass P.oceanica dead leaves Macro-algae Micro-organisms P.oceanica living leaves «Dead leaves litter» François Remy François Remy % exported
3 Aim? Aim of the study : Determine if the vagile macrofauna community experiences spatio-temporal changes of its isotopic composition Determine whether these variations are due to real diet modifications, or only due to isotopic baseline shifts.
4 Sampling techniques Sampling in August 11, November 11, March 12 and June 12 2 different sites (10m depth) Litter + macrofauna
5 Why use N and C stable isotopes? Fractionation Differences between food webs components
6 Why use N and C stable isotopes? Main rule in isotopic ecology : You are what you eat, plus (or minus) a few permill (DeNiro & Epstein 1976)
7 Why use N and C stable isotopes? δ (Delta) : Heavy isotope Light isotope < 13 C/ 12 C = food marker 15 N/ 14 N = trophic level/ food marker δ 15 N >> Food source composition consumer composition δ 13 C
8 Results : the global community Not very easy to see the information
9 Results : the global community Red algae Dead litter Living Posidonia Epiphytes + Green algae
10 d15n δ 15 N SIBER model Good to give the position, shape and are of isotopic niches of different species inside a community, or of an entire community Less sensitive to sample size than Layman metrics good for our use ENTIRE COMMUNITY Standard ellipses areas Comparison of ares Measure of overlap d13c δ C
11 δ 15 d15n N Results : SIBER model run 5 DOMINANT SPECIES Gammarella fucicola Gammarus aequicauda Athanas nitescens Palaemon xiphias Melita hergensis δ 13 C d13c δ 13 C Interspecific niches variations
12 δ 15 d15n N Results : SIBER model run δ 15 d15n N Gammarus aequicauda Summer Harbor Summer Oscelluccia Autumn Harbor Autumn Oscelluccia Winter Harbor Winter Oscelluccia Spring Harbor Spring Oscelluccia Gammarella fucicola d13c δ 13 C d13c δ 13 C Spatio-temporal intraspecific level niche variations
13 Okay BUT But are these differences reflecting a diet change, or only a food sources basline shift?
14 SIAR Bayesian mixing model Reality : always different potential food sources δ 15 N Need to solve the question Mixing models SIAR δ 13 C
15 Proportion of food source Proportion SIAR mixing model run Proportion of food source Proportion Gammarus aequicauda, Proportions by group: summer, 1 site 1 Gammarus aequicauda, Proportions by group: autumn, 1 site 1 Epiphytes + Green Algae 0.78 Dead Litter 0.86 Dead Litter Epiphytes + Green Algae 0.20 Red Algae Red Algae 0.02 L RA EA Source L RA EA Source Drastic changes even if the model takes baseline variations into account Real diet change independently of food sources isotopic composition!
16 δ 15 d15n N SIAR mixing model run Okay for one species but is it the case for all the community? Obviously not each species reacts differently to litter dynamic conditions Palaemon xiphias Summer Harbor Summer Oscelluccia Autumn Harbor Autumn Oscelluccia Winter Harbor Winter Oscelluccia Spring Harbor Spring Oscelluccia Same intraspecific niche variations δ 13 C d13c BUT
17 Proportion of food source Proportion SIAR mixing model run Proportion of food source Proportion Uncertainty differs, but no apparent change of the diet Predatory shrimp eats the same preys diet of preys differ indirect effect Proportions by group: 1 Proportions by group: 1 Palaemon xiphias, summer, site 1 Palaemon xiphias, autumn, site 1 Gammarus aequicauda Gammarus aequicauda 0.05 Gammarella fucicola 0.04 Gammarella fucicola GA GF GA GF Source Source
18 Take home message Mixing models like SIAR and SIBER are powerful tools for trophic ecologists IF PROPERLY USED Exported litter macrofauna isotopic niches modification at community, specific, and intraspecific level Niche variations may be related to real and important diet modifications BUT Need to work at a specific level
