23. [Article] Testing the Ecological and Physiological Factors Influencing Reproductive Success in Mosses
As non-vascular, early land plants with an aquatic ancestry, mosses do not regulate internal water conditions separate from that of their environment and as a result, evolved mechanisms to survive in a ...Citation -
24. [Article] Rapid Change in Shallow Water Fish Species Composition in an Historically Stable Antarctic Environment
McMurdo Sound, Antarctica, is home to a unique marine biota with an ecology that has evolved in this frigid environment over millions of years. The region is one of the least disturbed, and possibly the ...Citation -
25. [Article] Greenhouse Gas Fluxes in Southeastern U.S. Coastal Plain Wetlands Under Contrasting Land Uses
Whether through sea level rise or wetland restoration, agricultural soils in coastal areas will be inundated at increasing rates, renewing connections to sensitive surface waters and raising critical questions ...Citation -
26. [Article] Biotic Resistance to Invasion: Native Predator Limits Abundance and Distribution of an Introduced Crab
Introduced species frequently escape the natural enemies (predators, competitors, and parasites) that limit their distribution and abundance in the native range. This reduction in native predators, competitors, ...Citation -
The aquarium trade moves thousands of species around the globe, and unwanted organisms may be released into freshwaters, with adverse ecological and economic effects. We report on the first investigation ...

28. [Article] Impact of Bythotrephes Invasion on Zooplankton Communities in Acid-Damaged and Recovered Lakes on the Boreal Shield
Invasive species introductions into freshwater ecosystems have had a multitude of effects on aquatic communities. Few studies, however, have directly compared the impact of an invader on communities with ...Citation -
Dramatic environmental change is expected in the Arctic, yet little is known about the occurrence and community composition of microcrustaceans in Arctic lakes and how this will be influenced by future ...
