Stable isotopes reveal the effect of trawl fisheries on the diet of commercially exploited species

Abstract Bottom trawling can change food availability for benthivorous demersal species by (i) changing benthic prey composition through physical seabed impacts and (ii) by removing overall benthic consumer biomass increasing the net availability of benthic prey for remaining individuals. Thus trawl...
