GRAZER FUNCTIONAL ROLES, INDUCED DEFENSES, AND INDIRECT INTERACTIONS: IMPLICATIONS FOR EELGRASS RESTORATION IN SAN FRANCISCO BAY

Grazer Functional Roles, Induced Defenses, and Indirect Interactions: Implications for Eelgrass Restoration in San Francisco Bay

Understanding the individual and interactive roles of consumer species is more than academic when the host plant is a subject of intense conservation interest.In a mesocosm experiment, we compared effects of common invertebrate grazers in San Francisco Bay seagrass (Zostera marina, eelgrass) beds, finding that some coleman ct200u ex gas tank specie

Assessing ecological effects of glacial meltwater on lakes fed by the Greenland Ice Sheet: The role of nutrient subsidies and turbidity

Meltwater discharge from the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) exports sediment, solutes, total phosphorus (TP), dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN), and other macro- and micronutrients to associated aquatic ecosystems.It remains unclear how this meltwater affects the ecology of glacially fed (GF) lakes.We assessed a suite of physical, chemical, and biolog
