Plankton ecosystem dynamics in a cyclonic eddy in the California Current System
Poster Number: 109 Presenter/Primary Author: Fanny Chenillat Eastern boundary upwelling systems (EBUS) are characterized by high biological production along the coast, contrasting with oligotrophic waters offshore.
Subsurface nitrate reduction in restored seagrass meadows
Poster Number: 107 Presenter/Primary Author: Lillian Aoki Seagrass meadows can play a key role in mitigating the effects of nutrient pollution through their function as a nutrient filter.
Scaling nested measurements of biogeochemical rates across prairie stream reaches with varying biotic and abiotic characteristics.
Poster Number: 106 Presenter/Primary Author: Matt Trentman Understanding the variability of ecological processes across spatial scales is a central issue in ecology, because increasing scale is often associated with increasing variability and complexity.
Evaluation of winter and summer climate responses to mid-1800s deforestation in New England using a regional climate model
Poster Number: 103 Presenter/Primary Author: Elizabeth Burakowski Climate responds to deforestation primarily through changes in surface energy fluxes. The removal of forest decreases surface roughness, increases albedo, and changes the partitioning of sens
Changes in copepod egg production rates in relation to frontal gradients and microplankton concentrations in the California Current Ecosystem
Poster Number: 102 Presenter/Primary Author: Catherine Nickels Fronts, i.e., ocean regions of high horizontal spatial gradients, often separate coastal, high productivity waters from oligotrophic, offshore zones.
