Direct effects and tradeoffs affect vegetative growth and sexual reproduction in an invasive seagrass experiencing different disturbance regimes

Creator:: Henderson, Jeremy Scott
Abstract:: Disturbance has both direct and indirect ramifications that can influence species abundance, distribution, and ultimately the diversity found within a community. As a result, we might expect disturbance to play a particularly important role in the ability of non-native species to proliferate outside of their native range. In practice, disturbance...

Community ecology of invasions: direct and indirect effects of multiple invasive species on aquatic communities

Creator:: Preston, Daniel L. and Henderson, Jeremy S.
Abstract:: With many ecosystems now supporting multiple nonnative species from different trophic levels, it can be challenging to disentangle the net effects of invaders within a community context. Here, we combined wetland surveys with a mesocosm experiment to examine the individual and combined effects of nonnative fish predators and nonnative bullfrogs...

Integrating functional trait frameworks into restoration : the role of seed and seedling traits in recruitment success

Creator:: Larson, Julie E.
Abstract:: Seeding is a vital tool to facilitate recovery of degraded ecosystems, but low seedling recruitment rates limit the utility of this practice in a range of ecosystems across the globe. Plant functional traits impact individual fitness through effects on growth, reproduction and survival. Consequently, seed and seedling trait variation among...

Evidence for regional‐scale controls on eelgrass (Zostera marina) and mesograzer community structure in upwelling‐influenced estuaries

Creator:: Hayduk, Jennifer L., Hacker, Sally D., Henderson, Jeremy S., and Tomas, Fiona
Abstract:: Community structure and function in ecosystems are dependent on top‐down and bottom‐up factors, which vary across local, regional, and temporal scales. In estuaries of the U.S. Pacific Northwest coast, eelgrass (Zostera marina) ecosystems are exposed to latitudinally varying oceanographic inputs in the form of ocean upwelling. Previous research suggests that...

Pragmatism and Pain: the Melioristic Rhetoric of Mirror Box Therapy

Creator:: Thompson, Anna F. B.
Abstract:: The phenomenon of phantom limb pain has been well documented for centuries, but little clinical work has been done to alleviate it. Physician and neuroscientist Vilayanur S. Ramachandran began researching this condition nearly two decades ago, and has discovered a promising alternative treatment: mirror-box therapy. This therapy is not yet...

Teaching business to the poor : the effectiveness of business development services within microenterprise development

Creator:: Wilson, Taylor Anne
Abstract:: Many economic development methods over the years have tried to solve the problem of poverty with varied success. Microenterprise development is a method that works with the poor to create small self-run businesses to increase their income, and therefore bring more freedom from disease illiteracy and discrimination.
