Using DNA metabarcoding to characterize the prey spectrum of two co-occurring Themisto amphipods in the rapidly changing Atlantic-Arctic gateway (the Fram Strait)

The goal of the study is to get a better insight into the diet spectra of two Themisto amphipods (Crustacea: Hyperiidea) in a changing Arctic ecosystem. The results of this study will ultimately give us a better understanding of trophic relationships in the Arctic marine foodweb.

本研究旨在深入解析北极动态变化生态系统中，隶属于甲壳纲（Crustacea）长足亚目（Hyperiidea）的两种泰米斯托属（Themisto）端足类的食性谱。本研究成果最终将助力我们更清晰地认知北极海洋食物网中的营养关系。
