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

Soil Water and Temperature Explain Canopy Phenology and Greenness on the Shortgrass Steppe

Poster Number:  105 Presenter/Primary Author:  Lynn Moore Primary production in the shortgrass steppe is positively related to precipitation, but the influence of temperature is dependent on precipitation and the combined effects determine water availabil

Providing a Pedological Basis for Ecological Experiments

Poster Number:  100 Presenter/Primary Author:  Shawn Salley The contemporary landscapes of the short-grass steppe ecosystem possess a remarkably diverse soil mantle.  While spatial heterogeneity does indeed exist among soils in the short-grass steppe,
