Growth Tendencies in <i>Didymosphenia geminata</i>
Didymosphenia geminata cells, when secreting excessive exopolysaccharide stalks, can coalesce and form blooms that affect their local community. It is unknown what causes D. geminata cells to produce stalk, as not all D. geminata cells do produce stalk. Natural growth patterns and the potential for

A note comparing the primary structure of the arctic ground squirrel and the yellow-bellied marmot hemoglobin B chains
Hemoglobin β chains were isolated from both the arctic ground squirrel (Citellus parryii undulatus) and the yellow-bellied marmot (Marmota flaviventris). After various enzymatic and chemical cleavages, the primary structures of these β chains were determined. Only one sequence difference was found b
Stridulation in <i>Nicrophorus investigator</i> as a Possible Means of Cooperation during Carcass Sequestration
Burying beetle stridulation has been observed and documented when caring for their young, as well as among agonistic beetles competing for carrion. Burying beetles in the genus Nicrophorus require a small carcass, typically 16-50 grams, in order to reproduce. Once located, the carcass is buried by t

From tree to tap: The impacts of climate change on biogeochemical processes during conifer needle distribution and broader implications for water quality in Colorado
Recent climate change has contributed to large-scale tree mortality across forested regions in Colorado. As forest health declines, concern for associated terrestrial biogeochemical and hydrologic shifts is mounting. These shifts are related to reduced tree canopy cover, cessation of belowground rhi

Urban Water Conservation Success in the Colorado River Basin
In the past few decades, cities in Arizona, Colorado, and Nevada have vastly increased their water use efficiency. They’ve also learned lessons that can inform other cities’ efforts.
Terrestrial ecosytem feedbacks to global climate change
Anthropogenic greenhouse gases are expected to induce changes in global climate that can alter ecosystems in ways that, in turn, may further affect climate. Such climate-ecosystem interactions can generate either positive or negative feedbacks to the climate system, thereby either enhancing or dimin
