Vegetation biodiversity response to excessive flooding in permanent and ephemeral wetlands
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Office of Research and Sponsored Programs, 2017-04)
Ephemeral wetlands vary greatly in water depth and animal diversity
in a highly dynamic habitat. The vegetation response of these wetlands
to flooding in comparison to their more permanent counterparts is poorly
understood. ...
Seasonal trends in permanent and ephemeral wetland water chemistry
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2015-04)
We investigated seasonal differences in pH, conductivity, and dissolved
oxygen concentrations between permanent and ephemeral wetlands
within the Chippewa Moraine State Recreation Area. These chemical attributes
affect ...
Environmental factors influencing wood frog (lythobates sylvaticus) tadpole size
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2015-04)
Body size variation among individuals and populations within a
species is important to study due to the ecological implications, specifically
life history population dynamics. Variation in growth among individuals has
been ...
Plant species richness determinants in ephemeral ponds and permanent wetlands
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Research Services, 2015-04)
Ephemeral ponds (EPs) are wetlands that dry seasonally and are
common in the forests of northern Wisconsin. We examined relationships
between several environmental factors and plant species richness (number of
species) ...
Drivers of hydroperiod in ephemeral and permanent wetlands
(University of Wisconsin--Stout. Office of Research and Sponsored Programs, 2017-04)
Wetlands serve as a habitat for many different plant and animal
species that rely on various hydroperiods to survive. Understanding the
influences on hydroperiod may help to compensate for any future loss or
changes in ...
