Ecologia Alimentar Em Mamíferos Marinhos: Técnicas De Estudo

Abstract: Os mamíferos marinhos predam sobre uma grande variedade de presas de diferentes níveis tróficos, ocupando nichos diferenciados tanto em cadeias tróficas curtas como em cadeias tróficas longas. Estudos a respeito da ecologia alimentar dos mamíferos marinhos são importantes para entender suas interações tróficas, além de identificar as posições que eles ocupam nas teias alimentares. Estes estudos contribuem para um melhor entendimento da estrutura trófica, do fluxo de energia e do funcionamento dos ecossistemas … Show more

“…Isotopes are atoms that have the same numbers of protons, but have different numbers of neutrons (BISI et al, 2012;PHILIPPSEN & BENEDITO, 2013). Isotopic composition of ratios between elements of any substance is presented in the form of notation δ (delta), as the isotopic ratios of carbon and nitrogen ( 13 C/ 12 C and 15 N/ 14 N) for example (BISI et al, 2012). These isotopic ratios are obtained using Equation 1, based on the natural abundance of elements used (LEAL et al, 2008;PHILIPPSEN & BENEDITO, 2013).…”

“…Isotopic ratios of δ 13 C and δ 15 N are the most frequently used (MARTINELLI et al, 1988;MANETTA & BENEDITO-CECÍIO, 2003;PEREIRA & BENEDITO, 2007) especially in trophic ecology studies (PHILIPPSEN & BENEDITO, 2013). The isotopic ratios of C and N of the consumer, for example, present a trophic enrichment compared to the isotopic composition of the diet (BISI et al, 2012). Carbon isotopes function as markers, since they fractionate very little in the food chains, while nitrogen isotopes are used commonly in processes to estimate trophic positions (FRY et al, 1999;VANDER ZANDEN et al, 1999;TIUNOV, 2007;CAUT et al, 2009).…”

“…Although stomach content analysis is a traditional tool, it is biased in that it only refers to what the animal ingested before it was sampled, reflecting a short‐term (days or weeks) diet. In addition, the technique may underestimate the importance of rapidly digested prey or overestimate those of slower digestion (Barros, 1993; Bisi et al, 2012a).…”
