1) Long-term research on fish populations in Lake Windermere using archived samples has allowed reconstruction of the food web using stable isotope analysis. 2) Isotope analysis shows roach rely mostly on littoral prey while perch have shifted to pelagic and profundal resources due to trophic overlap with roach. Arctic charr also appear to now rely more on profundal resources. 3) Pike diet has shifted from Arctic charr to roach, changing the routing of energy in the food web from pelagic to littoral zones. There has also been a subtle increase in trophic efficiency within the web.
