Indicated percentages correspond to the contribution of either primary consumers (TP(Aqua) = 3) or secondary consumers (TP(Aqua) = 4) from aquatic ecosystem to the human diet in association to terrestrial plants (TP(C3) = 2), or terrestrial primary consumers (TP(C3) = 3), or a 50:50 mix of terrestrial plant and herbivores (TP(C3) = 2.5). These calculations are indicative since the values of the end-members are based on the theoretical TP lines. n/a (non applicable) stands for unsolvable results.
