Methane-derived carbon, incorporated by methane-oxidizing bacteria, has been identified as a significant source of carbon in food webs of many lakes. By measuring the stable carbon isotopic composition (δ13C values) of particulate organic matter, Chironomidae and Daphnia spp. and their resting eggs (ephippia), we show that methane-derived carbon presently plays a relevant role in the food web of hypertrophic Lake De Waay, The Netherlands. Sediment geochemistry, diatom analyses and δ13C measurements of chironomid and Daphnia remains in the lake sediments indicate that oligotrophication and re-eutrophication of the lake during the twentieth century had a strong impact on in-lake oxygen availability. This, in turn, influenced the relevance of methane-derived carbon in the diet of aquatic invertebrates. Our results show that, contrary to expectations, methane-derived relative to photosynthetically produced organic carbon became more relevant for at least some invertebrates during periods with higher nutrient availability for algal growth, indicating a proportionally higher use of methane-derived carbon in the lake's food web during peak eutrophication phases. Contributions of methane-derived carbon to the diet of the investigated invertebrates are estimated to have ranged from 0–11% during the phase with the lowest nutrient availability to 13–20% during the peak eutrophication phase.

Hydrogen isotopes (δ2H) of polyunsaturated fatty acids track bioconversion by zooplankton
Pilecky, Matthias; Kämmer, Samuel K.; Mathieu‐Resuge, Margaux; Wassenaar, Leonard I.; Taipale, Sami J.; Martin‐Creuzburg, Dominik; Kainz, Martin J. (Wiley-Blackwell, 2022)1. Organisms at the base of aquatic food webs synthesize essential nutrients, such as omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA), which are transferred to consumers at higher trophic levels. Many consumers, requiring ... -
Variability in δ13C values between individual Daphnia ephippia : Implications for palaeo-studies
Schilder, Johannes; van Roij, Linda; Reichart, Gert-Jan; Sluijs, Appy; Heiri, Oliver (Pergamon Press, 2018)The stable carbon isotope ratio (δ13C value) of Daphnia spp. resting egg shells (ephippia) provides information on past changes in Daphnia diet. Measurements are typically performed on samples of ≥20 ephippia, which obscures ... -
Abundance and δ13C values of fatty acids in lacustrine surface sediments : Relationships with in-lake methane concentrations
Stötter, Tabea; Bastviken, David; Bodelier, Paul L.E.; van Hardenbroek, Maarten; Rinta, Päivi; Schilder, Johannes; Schubert, Carsten J.; Heiri, Oliver (Pergamon Press, 2018)Proxy-indicators in lake sediments provide the only approach by which the dynamics of in-lake methane cycling can be examined on multi-decadal to centennial time scales. This information is necessary to constrain how ... -
Late-Holocene variability in chironomid functional assemblages and carbon utilization in a tundra lake food web

Henriikka; Luoto, Tomi P.; Rantala, Marttiina, V; Nevalainen, Liisa (Springer, 2020)High latitude freshwater systems are facing changes in catchment-mediated allochthonous input, as well as physical and chemical controls triggered by on-going climate change, which may alter their carbon processing and ... -
From clear lakes to murky waters : tracing the functional response of high-latitude lake communities to concurrent ‘greening’ and ‘browning’
Hayden, B.; Harrod, C.; Thomas, S. M.; Eloranta, Antti; Myllykangas, J.-P.; Siwertsson, A.; Præbel, K.; Knudsen, R.; Amundsen, P.-A.; Kahilainen, K. K. (Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2019)Climate change and the intensification of land use practices are causing widespread eutrophication of subarctic lakes. The implications of this rapid change for lake ecosystem function remain poorly understood. To assess ...
