Fire, other disturbances, physical setting, weather, and climate shape the structure and function of forests throughout the Western United States. More than 80 years of fire research have shown that physical setting, fuels, and weather combine to determine wildfire intensity (the rate at which it consumes fuel) and severity (the...

The estuarine-dependent brown shrimp, Farfantepenaeus aztecus, is a significant commercial fishery and important species in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) ecosystem as well as being a key component in energy transfer between benthic and pelagic food web systems. Because of the economical and ecological importance of brown shrimp, we developed...

Intraspecific life history attributes of growth, survival, and reproduction can vary in
response to changes in the physical environment. These changes can induce a cascading effect
across trophic levels. In marine systems, shifts in ocean conditions such as warm and cold phases
of ENSO can change primary production in benthic...
