Functional profiles of soil microbial communities in second-growth Douglas-fir forests of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:

McGinnis, Megan L.

Abstract:

Forests are one of the largest repositories of terrestrial C. Understanding factors that drive organic matter transformations and nutrient efflux from these systems is therefore highly important. Temperate forests are of particular significance due to the large fraction of C that is stored below ground in the soil. Characterizing nutrient...

Provenance, lifespan, and phylogeny : testing a conceptual framework for plant community management

Creator:

Benfield, Cara D.

Abstract:

Successful conservation management requires an understanding of how species respond to intervention. Native and exotic species may respond differently to management interventions due to differences arising directly from their native or exotic origin (i.e., provenance) or from differences in life-history or phylogenetic lineage that are associated with provenance. Thus, selection...
