Stable isotopes of marine invasive alien species in Mediterranean waters
This dataset includes 86 georeferenced stable isotopes records (carbon 13 and nitrogen 15) of marine invasive alien species in Mediterranean waters. Specimens used for stable isotope analysis were collected in 2022 at three different locations in Italy, Greece and Cyprus during three sampling campaigns in collaboration with small-scale fishers. The dataset also include morphometric data (biomass and length) of the individuals. Stable isotope analysis were performed within the framework of the USEit project.
