Life in a Rapidly Changing Environment: The Thermal Biology of the Red-sided Garter Snake (Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis)

Creator:

Hubert, David L.

Abstract:

At a time when environmental conditions are rapidly changing, understanding how thermal extremes impact wildlife is imperative to fully understanding the consequences of climate change in natural ecosystems.

Hybridization of Non-Native Dune-Building Beachgrasses on the U.S. Pacific Northwest Coast: Characterization of Functional Morphology, Hybrid Swarm Composition, and Ecological Consequences of Ammophila arenaria × A. breviligulata

Creator:

Mostow, Rebecca S.

Abstract:

The rates of biological introductions and invasions are increasing, driving up the associated harms to ecosystems and economies. The spread and effects of invasive organisms depend on the specifics of the introduction, the character of the invaded ecosystem, and multiple traits of the invasive organism itself. One mechanism by which...
