Elevational and Seasonal Dependence in Climate Change Within a Mid-latitude High Mountain System, Colorado Front Range, USA
Poster Number: 151 Presenter/Primary Author: Jennifer Morse We contrasted 59-year (1952-2010) climate records of two high-elevation sites in the Colorado Rocky Mountains Front Range, USA; one a subalpine forest (3021 m asl) and the other high alpine tundra
Dissolved organic matter and sea ice dynamics may explain changes in microbial community structure along the western Antarctic Peninsula
Poster Number: 150 Presenter/Primary Author: Catherine M. Luria The western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) experiences extreme seasonal changes in sea-ice and light, with intense phytoplankton blooms in spring and summer.
Toward modeling the role of ecomorphodynamics in barrier island response to climate change
Poster Number: 149 Presenter/Primary Author: Orencio Duran Vinent In barrier islands, coastal dune morphology is the most important factor determining the vulnerability to storm impacts,
Trophic interactions and variation in reproductive performance within a community of Antarctic penguins (genus Pygoscelis)
Poster Number: 147 Presenter/Primary Author: Kristen Gorman The southwestern Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean, including the Bellingshausen Sea west of the Antarctica Peninsula (AP), is now strongly influenced by ocean-climate warming.
Effects of environmental spatial variation in structuring ammonia-oxidizing microbial communities in arid grassland
Poster Number: 144 Presenter/Primary Author: Paul Brewer The enormous biodiversity of soil microbial communities is likely caused, in part, by a similar diversity of soil microhabitats. Understanding how the environmental properties that create div
