Selecting herbaceous plant cover to control tree invasion in rights-of-way
(Elsevier, 2002)Following construction of a right-of-way, environmental regulation often requires the rapid restoration of a herbaceous plant cover to control erosion and/or attenuate visual impact. Herbaceous species can be selected with the added long-term goal ... -
Spatially explicit predictions of food web structure from regional-level data
(The Royal Society, 2024-07-22)Knowledge about how ecological networks vary across global scales iscurrently limited given the complexity of acquiring repeated spatial datafor species interactions. Yet, recent developments in metawebs highlightefficient ways to first document possible ... -
Toxicity and subcellular fractionation of yttrium in three freshwater organisms : Daphnia magna, Chironomus riparius and Oncorhynchus mykiss
(American Chemical Society, 2019-08-15)The demand for rare earth elements (REEs) has increased since the 1990s leading to the development of many mining projects worldwide. However, less is known about how organisms can handle these metals in natural aquatic systems. Through laboratory ... -
Understanding food web mercury accumulation through trophic transfer and carbon processing along a river affected by recent run-of-river dams
(2021-02-03)Unlike large dams which favor methylation of Hg in flooded soils over long periods, run-of-river dams are designed to flood a limited area of soils and are therefore not expected to significantly affect mercury (Hg) cycling or carbon processing. We ...
