The Tulenapa Forest Dynamics Site: A new ILTER initiative within the Chocó-Darién Biodiversity Hotspot (Urabá, Colombian Caribbean)
Poster Number: 215 Presenter/Primary Author: Juan Blanco No ILTER site exists in Colombia, and only two Large Forest Dynamics Plots (LFDP) have been formally associated to the Center for Tropical Forest Science (CTFS), thus urging for the establishment o

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
Microbes, moisture, and metabolic activity: Is there a soil moisture threshold for microbial activity?
Poster Number: 121 Presenter/Primary Author: Sarah Placella Growing evidence suggests that climate-driven changes in precipitation regulate microbially mediated ecosystem processes, such as CO2 flux from soils to the atmosphere.
