Description :
"Stable isotope ratios and elemental contents of C, N and S in benthic organisms sampled during the PROTEKER 5 summer campaign in Kerguelen Islands (2016)" is sampling event type dataset published by SCAR-AntOBIS. The report of the summer campaign (in french) is available at: https://proteker.osupytheas.fr/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/PROTEKER2016-17_rapport_xs.pdf
This dataset contains records of 363 specimens from 29 taxa, based on SCUBA diving collection complemented with intertidal collections on the shore and in rock pools at low tide during the PROTEKER 5 campaign in Kerguelen Islands from 03/11/2016 to 31/12/2016.
The data is published as a standardized Darwin Core Archive and includes for each sampling event an eventID, date, time, location, depth range, sampling protocol (in the event core). For each occurrence, an occurrenceID, eventID, status (present/absent), catalog number, institution code, scientific name, taxa classification, preparations are specified in the occurrence extension. Each measurement associated with a sampling event or an occurrence record will have a measurementID, measurement type, measurement value and measurement unit and their corresponding identifiers if any (in the extended measurement or fact extension).

Title: Feeding of Antarctic asteroids: identification of trophic resources and investigation of trophic plasticity and diversity.
Identifier: FRIA doctoral grant number 1.E091.16
Description: The Southern Ocean undergoes intense and contrasted impacts linked to climate change. Sea stars (Echinodermata: Asteroidea) are a key group of the Southern Ocean benthos, considered to be quite resistant to seawater temperature changes. However, other more indirect environmental changes, might induce important shifts in food web structure and functioning, that may affect sea stars trophic ecology. This project proposes to investigate the trophic ecology of Antarctic asteroids using isotope analyses.
