The 1995/96 reintroduction of gray wolves (Canis lupus) into Yellowstone National Park
after a 70 year absence has allowed for studies of tri-trophic cascades involving wolves, elk
(Cervus elaphus), and plant species such as aspen (Populus tremuloides), cottonwoods (Populus
spp.), and willows (Salix spp.). To investigate the status of this...

Mat-forming “ground layers” of mosses and lichens often have functional impacts disproportionate to their biomass, and are responsible for sequestering one-third of the world's terrestrial carbon as they regulate water tables, cool soils and inhibit microbial decomposition. Without reliable assessment tools, the potential effects of climate and land use changes...

Mixia osmundae (Basidiomycota, Pucciniomycotina) represents a monotypic class containing
an unusual fern pathogen with incompletely understood biology. We sequenced and analyzed
the genome of M. osmundae, focusing on genes that may provide some insight into its
mode of pathogenicity and reproductive biology.
Mixia osmundae has the smallest plant pathogenic basidiomycete...

Siletzia is a basaltic Paleocene and Eocene
large igneous province in coastal Oregon,
Washington, and southern Vancouver Island
that was accreted to North America in the
early Eocene. New U-Pb magmatic, detrital
zircon, and ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages constrained by
detailed field mapping, global nannoplankton
zones, and magnetic polarities allow correlation
of...

Headwater streams comprise nearly 90% of the total length of perennial channels in global catchments. They mineralize organic carbon entering from terrestrial systems, evade terrestrial carbon dioxide (CO₂ ), and generate and remove carbon through in-stream primary production and respiration. Despite their importance, headwater streams are often neglected in global...

Assessing the ecological impacts of anthropogenic pressures is a key task in environmental management. Multimetric indices (MMIs), based on aquatic assemblage responses to anthropogenic pressures, have been used increasingly throughout the world. The MMI approach is a low-cost, rapid field method that produces an aquatic condition index that responds precisely...
