Abstract:

This study analyzed data collected during the Broward County beach renourishment project yearly monitoring site visits. Twenty four sample sites throughout the county were established to monitor the coral reef community during beach renourishment efforts sponsored by Broward County and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. Data collected during each site visit included stony coral cover, density, and colony size. Octocoral and sponge density were also collected. A sediment bottle trap was deployed at each site in order to record the sedimentation rates and grain sizes. These trap

Abstract:

Constructed wetlands (CWs) are ecologically-based water treatment systems that provide cost-effective amelioration of waterborne pollutants. Fundamental understanding of removal mechanisms, especially microbial processes, limits greater usage of constructed wetlands as a wastewater treatment system. The influence of plant species selection, season, and organic load rate on pollutant removal was previously linked to the redox condition of the sub-surface wetland environment. The goal of this research was to determine which of these environmental variables (including spatial location within the

Abstract:

Habitat loss and fragmentation are the main drivers of biodiversity loss in terrestrial ecosystems, particularly in the tropics. Fragmented habitats can interfere with organism dispersion, population persistence and ecosystem functions but empirical studies report variation in the sensitivity of species and processes to fragmentation and the mechanisms operating behind observed responses remain poorly understood. In this study we examined the effects of forest fragmentation on the colonization of artificial treeholes in northwestern Costa Rica by measuring the responses at the community level.

Abstract:

Dormancy is a plausible strategy for bacteria to overcome the effects of temporal fluctuations in resources or stresses and await more “optimal” conditions to resume metabolic activity and growth. Seasonal changes in environmental conditions force microbes to adjust their metabolic activity accordingly, and community composition drastically shifts. In extreme environments, however, the overriding effects of a constant stress may constrain the need or benefit of bacteria entering dormancy. In hypersaline lakes, high metabolic activity is required to maintain adaptations that permit survival.
