“…In freshwater ecosystems, the transfer of nutrients from allochthonous resource subsidies can play a primary role in food-web structuring (Samways, Soto, & Cunjak, 2018;Takimoto, Iwata, & Murakami, 2002). The benefits to freshwater nutrient budgets via marine-derived nutrient (MDN) transfer from anadromous salmonid fishes (via excretion, gamete release and carcass decomposition) have been well established (Richardson, Kohler, Hailemichael, & Finney, 2016;Schindler, Leavitt, Brock, Johnson, & Quay, 2005;Wipfli, Hudson, Caouette, & Chaloner, 2003;Zhang, Negishi, Richardson, & Kolodziejczyk, 2003). However, anadromous fishes can also play an important role in the transfer of MDN to freshwaters via their direct consumption by freshwater apex predators (Guillerault, Bouletreau, Iribar, Valentini, & Santoul, 2017;MacAvoy, Macko, McIninch, & Garman, 2000).…”
