Drivers of Soil Fungal Communities Across Three Tropical Rainforests in Panama

Creator:

Schappe, Tyler

Abstract:

Fungi play critical roles in ecosystem processes and interact with plant communities in mutualistic, pathogenic, and commensal ways. Fungal communities are thought to be influenced by both associated tree communities and soil properties. However, the relative importance of the biotic and abiotic drivers of soil fungal community structure and diversity...

Flow Homogenization and Beaver Activity Interact to Degrade Aquatic Invertebrate Community Structure

Creator:

DuBose, David B.

Abstract:

Flow homogenization, the removal of natural flow events such as floods and droughts, can be detrimental to the functioning of riverine habitats. In rivers with beaver (Castor canadensis), flow homogenization can facilitate unchecked beaver dam construction due to lack of dam removal from floods, leading to physical effects such as...

Transition metal and rare earth element fluxes at two sites in the eastern tropical Pacific : relationship to ferromanganese nodule genesis

Creator:

Murphy, Kim Marie

Abstract:

Transition metal and rare earth element (REE) data are presented for various sedimentary materials from two Manganese Nodule Program (MANOP) sites in the eastern tropical Pacific. These data constrain the sources of elemental supply to the seafloor and the processes that control ferromanganese nodule genesis. Investigation of elemental partitioning between...
