To gain a better understanding of how rapidly microbial communities respond to different magnitudes of perturbation that mimic minor or catastrophic disturbances.
Two montane sites in the western Cascade Mountains of Oregon with adjacent areas of forest and meadow vegetation were studied. A reciprocal transplant experiment evaluated both minor (soil...
The Pacific salmonid species Oncorhynchus mykiss is separated into a migratory form (steelhead trout) and a
non-migratory form (rainbow trout). A decrease in water temperature is likely a cue triggering downstream
behavior in the migratory form, and testosterone inhibits onset of this behavior. To elucidate differences in
sensitivity to water...
