Abstract:
<p> River-associated birds may be valuable indicators of environmental change in riverine ecosystems because they are predators of fishes and therefore often top predators in the aquatic food web. To evaluate the likely scope of one form of change - river restoration through dam removal and the expected return of abundant diadromous fish prey - we: 1) developed an appropriate river bird survey protocol; 2) documented the relative importance of sea-run fish in the diet of four river bird species, bald eagle (<i>Haliaeetus leucocephalus</i>), osprey (<i>Pandion haliaetus</i>), belted kingfisher

Abstract:
<p> Grasslands are known to have been an important ecosystem in the Illinois landscape prior to European settlement. They have been severely impacted by changes in land use such as the conversion of native grasslands to agricultural land for the production of crops and livestock. Grassland ecosystems are known to provide several essential ecosystem functions that are important for the maintenance of the ecosystem and for human survival. Some of the ecosystem functions associated with grasslands include: nutrient cycling, carbon sequestration, and the cleansing of environmental contaminants fro

Despite the widespread use of chironomids in biomonitoring and paleoenvironmental research to infer environmental change, there is disagreement over the level of taxonomic resolution required for meaningful ecological interpretations.

I found similar results between both levels of resolution with both live and sub-fossil datasets, but a number of taxa had different ecological preferences when examined at different resolutions.

Abstract:
Choline metabolites are elevated in breast cancer, decrease in response to effective therapy and are detected non-invasively by magnetic resonance modalities. Decreases in choline metabolites occur early-on after initiation of treatment. There is potential for use of choline metabolites as non-invasive diagnostic and therapeutic response indicators. Choline metabolites are detected in vivo by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in broad resonances which are composites of multiple compounds.

<p> Anthropogenic lead releases into the environment often end up in aquatic sediments. Ecotoxicologists have historically studied biological effects of toxicants, such as lead, using individuals or populations as models in laboratory settings.

My project therefore aimed to investigate sediment lead effects at the community level, as well as on ecosystem function. Studies were conducted in a lake

Abstract:
Several lakes located in the blast zone of the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens were studied to determine if the plankton in the lakes were limited in their growth by nitrogen or phosphorus availability. Long term nutrient enrichment experiments were performed on lake water from five lakes and measures of chlorophyll-a, carbon fixation, and nutrient uptake were used to evaluate the extent of limitation. Nutrient concentrations, ratios, and uptake from 14 lakes provided additional evidence for limitation by nitrogen and/or phosphorus. The physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of t
