Flowering and floral visitation predict changes in community structure provided that mycorrhizas remain intact
Download2018-01-01
Pollination is critical for plant fitness and population dynamics, yet little attention is paid to the role of flowering and plant-pollinator interactions in structuring plant communities, including community responses to environmental change. Changes in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF),...

Soil fungi after pine beetle outbreak: Diagnosis of fungal community composition and treatment of outplanted seedlings with tailored soil inoculum
DownloadSpring 2019
Soil fungal communities play vital roles in boreal forests as key organisms that cycle nutrients, facilitate uptake of resources for mycorrhizal plants, and store carbon. Forest disturbances often result in shifts in soil fungal community composition, yet, it is unclear if these effects are...

In recent years, automated bird song classification programs have been becoming more common among researchers as a way to study, track, and monitor birds. In our research, we tested the accuracy of one such program called BirdNET. We tested 225 recordings by uploading them to BirdNET and manually...

Co-Composing Knowledge Communities and Curricula: A Narrative Inquiry into Student Teachers’ and a Teacher Educator’s Experiences
DownloadFall 2022
What is knowledge? Whose knowledge matters? How can we build connections with people, share knowledge, and promote one another’s growth? These and many other wonders were embedded in my tension-filled stories about knowledge, curricula, and communities, both as a university teacher of English in...

Examining contingencies of the plant community–grazing relationship at multiple scales across North America
DownloadFall 2023
Defoliation is a globally ubiquitous driver of plant community structure and function. However, plant community responses to defoliation remain challenging to predict as they are highly context-dependent. Following defoliation, plant community diversity and production may increase, decrease, or...
