Abstract:Assessing food web structural properties and energy fluxes under changing hydrological regimes and water quality reveals the temporal patterns of ecosystem dynamics in shallow lakes. Here, we studied northern China’s largest shallow lake (Lake Baiyangdian) using quantitative food web models for five representative years (1958, 1980, 1993, 2009, and 2019). We analyzed the temporal patterns of food web structure and function by combining a Bayesian isotope mixing model with a food web energetics model. We furthe… Show more
