Application of nitrogen stable isotopes to identify sources of nutrient pollution : a management tool?

Creator:

Redon, Elizabeth A.

Abstract:

Nutrient pollution may perhaps be one of the oldest water quality problems and has recently been considered as one of the greatest threats to estuarine and coastal waters. Excessive nutrient loads have had a vast array of impacts on estuarine and coastal ecosystems globally. Direct negative effects include: shading out...

A stable carbon isotope approach to distinguish climate stress from other imposed stresses in coniferous forests

Creator:

Panek, Jeanne A.

Abstract:

To understand the effect of human-induced stresses on forests, there is a need for a method to separate effects of imposed stress from effects of natural climate stress. I developed an approach to predict forest response to climate stress using as indicators stable carbon isotopes in tree foliage and growth-rings....
