  30. <meta content="The stomach contents of adult brown trout Salmo trutta from Lake Sorell, Tasmania, were
  31. analysed during 6 years of increasing turbidity to follow changes in the diet associated with
  32. dramatic changes in water clarity. Brown trout were sampled from 1996, when turbidity was 26
  33. NTU, to 2001 when turbidity was 141NTU. The mean relative volume of stomach contents
  34. decreased progressively to 2001, by which time it was only one sixth of that in 1996, and the mean
  35. diversity of prey in stomachs decreased from an average of more than six species per stomach in
  36. 1996 to one species in 2001. The species composition of stomach contents shifted from domination
  37. by the phreatoicid isopod Colubotelson sp., to the galaxiid fish Galaxias auratus and the
  38. amphipod Austrochiltonia australis, and then the cladoceran Daphnia carinata. To give an
  39. indication of diet changes over a typical yearly cycle in the current turbid state of the lake, a
  40. sample was taken from each season from December 2000 to September 2001. Two basic diets
  41. were found during the year; brown trout specialized on D. carinata in summer and autumn, and
  42. G. auratus in winter and spring. Mean diversity of prey was less than two species per stomach in
  43. all samples from 2000 to 2001, except for the sample from spring 2001 when it was 22 species per
  44. stomach, and the mean relative volume of stomach contents was more than three times greater in
  45. winter than any other season. The ways in which high turbidity may have influenced the changes
  46. in the brown trout diet observed since 1996 and the patterns evident during the seasons of
  47. 2000-2001 are discussed." name="eprints.abstract" />

  290. analysed during 6 years of increasing turbidity to follow changes in the diet associated with&#13;
  291. dramatic changes in water clarity. Brown trout were sampled from 1996, when turbidity was 26&#13;
  292. NTU, to 2001 when turbidity was 141NTU. The mean relative volume of stomach contents&#13;
  293. decreased progressively to 2001, by which time it was only one sixth of that in 1996, and the mean&#13;
  294. diversity of prey in stomachs decreased from an average of more than six species per stomach in&#13;
  295. 1996 to one species in 2001. The species composition of stomach contents shifted from domination&#13;
  296. by the phreatoicid isopod Colubotelson sp., to the galaxiid fish Galaxias auratus and the&#13;
  297. amphipod Austrochiltonia australis, and then the cladoceran Daphnia carinata. To give an&#13;
  298. indication of diet changes over a typical yearly cycle in the current turbid state of the lake, a&#13;
  299. sample was taken from each season from December 2000 to September 2001. Two basic diets&#13;
  300. were found during the year; brown trout specialized on D. carinata in summer and autumn, and&#13;
  301. G. auratus in winter and spring. Mean diversity of prey was less than two species per stomach in&#13;
  302. all samples from 2000 to 2001, except for the sample from spring 2001 when it was 22 species per&#13;
  303. stomach, and the mean relative volume of stomach contents was more than three times greater in&#13;
  304. winter than any other season. The ways in which high turbidity may have influenced the changes&#13;
  305. in the brown trout diet observed since 1996 and the patterns evident during the seasons of&#13;
  306. 2000-2001 are discussed.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" border="0" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Additional Information:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">The definitive version is available at www.blackwell-synergy.com</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Daphnia carinata, feeding, Galaxias auratus, Tasmanian lake, trophic adaptability.</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/270701.html">270000 Biological Sciences &gt; 270700 Ecology and Evolution &gt; 270701 Freshwater Ecology</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Collections:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">UNSPECIFIED</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">1598</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Mr Rick D.
