Stable C and N isotope measurements of the clam Potamocorbula amurensis were used to help identify watershed-level differences in food webs of San Francisco Bay. Potamocorbula amurensis has become widely distributed in San Francisco Bay since introduction from Asia in1986. Clam samples were collected from both the river-influenced northern arm of San Francisco Bay and the lagoonal southern arm of the Bay during 1990-1991. Carbon isotopic compositions of clams responded primarily to riverine inputs and provided an index of hydrologic mixing across the estuarine system. Nitrogen isotopic compositions of clams were more responsive to watershed nutrient loading, with higher δ15N values found in South Bay, which receives stronger inputs of anthropogenic N. Routine monitoring of animal consumer isotopic compositions could be an effective way to detect long-term watershed-level changes in C and N dynamics important for secondary production in aquatic systems.
