Article Synopsis
- Dietary carbon sources in headwater streams are divided into allochthonous (imported) and autochthonous (local) organic matters, with a focus on fish diets.
- The study tested hypotheses suggesting that allochthonous contributions to fish diets are positively related to canopy cover, while essential fatty acids primarily come from autochthonous sources regardless of cover.
- Results showed that autochthonous sources significantly contribute to fish carbon and essential fatty acids, even in streams with high canopy cover in northern Japan.
