1990
Many autecological effects of temperature on fish are known, and fishery biologists have begun to incorporate this knowledge into population-level relations that can be used to assess possible effects of climatic warming on fishes and their habitats. However, the problem of extrapolating these or...

Climbing simulated vegetation to heights of ungulate hosts by larvae of Dermacentor albipictus (Acari: Ixodidae)
Download2000
Samuel, W. M., Shostak, A. W., McPherson, M.
Abstract: Larvae of winter ticks, Dermacentor albipictus (Packard), ascend vegetation in autumn and form clumps that attach to passing ungulate hosts. We tested the hypothesis that vegetation height determines the height of clumps. During the vegetation-to-ungulate transmission period (early...

Pfeffer, B. A., Chader, G. J., Zakeri, Z. F., Wu, S. P., Bernstein, S. L., Wong, P., Chambers, M. L.
Purpose: The clusterin gene encodes a multi-functional protein that has been identified in different tissues, including a number of different eye tissues, primarily in the mouse and to a much lesser extent in humans. Clusterin has been implicated in a number of cellular processes such as lipid...

Cobbania corrugata (Lesquereux) comb. nov. (Araceae): A floating aquatic aroid from the Upper Cretaceous of western North America
Download2007
Stockey, R.A., Johnson, K., Rothwell, G.W.
The fossil record of aquatic flowering plants broadens our understanding of their former diversity and origins from terrestrial ancestors. This paper describes a floating aquatic monocot from 71 whole plants and several isolated leaf fragments from Upper Cretaceous oxbow lake sediments in the...

Invasive species are a major threat to global biodiversity. Understanding what influences the spread of invasive species after introduction is key to minimizing impacts on native ecosystems and has been the subject of much applied and theoretical work. Thus far, models of spread have not...

Combining Characters of Pteridaceae and Tree Ferns: Pterisorus Radiata gen. et sp. nov., A Permineralized Lower Cretaceous Filicalean with Radial Sori
Download2006
Stockey, R. A, Rothwell, G. W.
An anatomically preserved leptosporangiate filicalean that combines characters of the Pteridaceae and tree ferns has been discovered in the Lower Cretaceous (Valanginian-Hauterivian boundary) Apple Bay flora on Vancouver Island, Canada. Exindusiate sori are radial, with numerous annulate...

Tonn, W.M., Forbes, A.M., Magnuson, J.J.
Decisions in fishery management usually are made on a species-by-species and site-by-site basis because most information about fishes has been collected and organized in this way. A comparaitve, community-level approah can contribute to the development of management strategies for large sets of...

Comparative Morphology and Phylogenetic Placement of Two Microsclerotial Black Fungi from Sphagnum
Download2003
Currah, R.S., Hambleton, S., Tsuneda, A.
Capnobotryella renispora and Scleroconidioma sphagnicola form black, irregularly shaped microsclerotia that are indistinguishable in gross morphology on leaves of Sphagnum fuscum. In culture, microsclerotia of these fungi were similar, in that mature component cells possessed thick, highly...
