Abstract Pulsed flows following heavy monsoon rain events alter riverine food webs, but their impact on headwater stream food webs across the continuum from forested canopy to open agricultural land use remains unclear. We investigated carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes in macroinvertebrates and fish in two tributaries of the Suyeung River, Korea, before and after heavy monsoon rains to assess changes in community trophic niches. Basal resources (leaf litter and biofilms) exhibited consistent δ13C and δ15N values across seasons, with biofilms showing higher δ13C values. δ15N values increased from forested to agricultural reaches, indicating varied nutrient inputs. Consumer isotope values remained stable over time but varied longitudinally, reflecting reliance on local resources. Trophic niches differed between watershed locations but overlapped seasonally. Despite a decrease in consumer δ13C ranges after heavy rainfalls, variations in their δ15N ranges and the ellipse centroid (SEAc) of isotopic niches between sites resulted in broadly consistent SEAc across locations and seasons. This indicates limited evidence for directional reshaping of food-web properties across channel reaches following monsoon rains. Downstream isotopic shifts suggest substantial agricultural influences on food webs. Overall, our findings highlight that monsoon rains may have minimal effects on the community trophic niches of stream food webs. |
