A Presence-Only Species Distribution Model Comparison Predicting the Distribution of the Amphibian Chytrid Fungus <i>(Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis)</i>
Temporal ecology of a subalpine ecosystem: Plant communities, plant-pollinator interactions, & climate change.
Ecological systems are inherently dynamic, and a primary way in which they are dynamic is through time. Individual organisms, populations, communities, species interactions, and ecosystem functions all follow a temporal progression from the past, to the present, and into the future. This temporal pr
Individual variation in plant traits drives species interactions, ecosystem functioning, and responses to global change.
Ecologists have long sought to understand the processes that lead to the riotous diversity in communities of organisms that inhabit disparate climates and landscapes. Such a diversity of traits leads to a diversity of interactions among species in natural communities, which in turn generates a diver
Male social behavior in a facultatively social rodent, the yellow-bellied marmot (<i>Marmota flaviventris</i>)
Potential impact of climate change on the phenology and reproduction of <i>Delphinium nuttallianum</i> (Ranunculaceae)
The causes and maintenance of personality in yellow-bellied marmots (<i>Marmota flaviventris</i>)
Describing and quantifying animal personality is now an integral part of behavioral studies because individually distinctive traits may have ecological and evolutionary consequences. Yet, to fully understand how personality traits may respond to selection, one must understand the underlying heritabi
How vulnerable are pollen-specialist solitary bees to temperature-mediated shifts in the timing of food availability?
Rising temperatures are advancing the seasonal timing of flowering and pollinator activity in
