Degree of call synchrony during interactions between male snowy tree crickets
(1990-10-01)Call synchrony has been reported for the snowy tree cricket (Oecanthus fultoni), but the degree to which it occurs in natural interactions has not been previously investigated. I recorded acoustic interactions among ten ... -
Development of vegetation in wetlands restored on Ozaukee County Conservation Reserve Program Lands
(1990-10-01)We studied the natural revegetation of six wetlands created in 1988 and six wetlands created in 1989 in Ozaukee County, Wisconsin. By describing the flora and vegetation of these two sets of wetlands we could compare the ... -
Development of vegetation over nine years in a planted field station prairie
(1994-10-01)We studied the development of vegetation in a small area at the UWM Field Station planted with prairie species in 1986. The species and quantities of seed and seedlings planted in 1986 were recorded. We sampled the vegetation ... -
Dispersal movements of juvenile Black-capped Chickadees
(1974-04-01)To learn more about Chickadee dispersal this study was undertaken from the summer of 1970 through the summer of 1973, involving the color-banded population of Black-capped Chickadees at the UW-M Cedar-Sauk Field Station ... -
Distribution and habitats of forked aster (Aster furcatus), a threatened Wisconsin plant
(1991-10-01)We describe the locations and habitat characteristics of 10 of the 14 known populations of Aster furcatus in Wisconsin. We were unable to identify any particularly unusual features of A. furcatus habitats which could be ... -
Distribution of ferns in the Maple-Beech Forest at the Cedar-Sauk Field Station
(1971-10-01)This report is another in a series of plant studies under investigation at the UWM Cedar-Sauk Field Station. Most of the previous studies were concerned with seed plants and only limited attention was given to the fern ... -
Dogwoods in Wisconsin
(1971-04-01)Many persons who have taken early spring trips to the southern and southeastern sections of our country frequently remark about the attractiveness of the Flowering Dogwood (Cornus florida L.) which they observed in the ... -

(1979-10-01)When visitors and classes utilize the Field Station facilities during the summer months, they seldom fail to notice dragonflies coursing the old fields or hawking mosquitoes over the little ponds. Their beauty and strong ... -
Ecological studies of the surface microlayer of small ponds at the UWM Field Station
(1983-10-01)The seasonal variation and enrichment of nutrients, pigments, bacteria, fungi and algae in the surface microlayer and subsurface waters were investigated in three ponds at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Field Station, ... -
Effects of flooding on herbaceous species of the white cedar-tamarack woods in Cedarburg Bog
(1982-10-01)A part of the northern lowland forest of Cedarburg Bog was flooded about eight years ago as a result of clogged road culverts. Studies of the effects of flooding on species composition, productivity, hydrology and soils ... -
Effects of management and site history on plant succession and seedbank composition in old-fields at the UWM Field Station
(1996-04-01)Vegetation succession and seedbank composition were studied in eleven oldfields with differing crop histories. All the fields had been abandoned from agriculture in the mid-1960's, and some fields are currently receiving ... -
Entomological studies at the UWM Field Station
(1977-10-01)Although the invertebrate fauna represents the greatest number of species and individuals within most animal communities, little work on them has been done at the UWM Field Station. Most of the invertebrate work which has ... -
Factors influencing germination of six wetland Cyperaceae
(1997-04-01)In order to determine factors which may affect the differential seed germination of six members of the Cyperaceae which occur together in newly revegetated sedge meadow, seeds were tested for germ inability at three storage ... -
Female dominance among Purple Finches (Carpodacus purpureus) in winter flocks
(1987-10-01)The dominance of females over males in winter flocks is rare. In this paper, I report on female dominance over males in winter flocks of Purple Finches (Carpodacus purpureus). Females won nearly all observed intersexual ... -
Flambeau Forest Blowdown
(1980-04-01)On July 4,1977, the 160 acre Flambeau River Forest Scientific Area was struck by a downburst of hurricane proportions (Fujita 1977) which destroyed most of the preserve. This stand had been one of the few relatively untouched ... -
Flowering phenology along the UWM Field Station boardwalk in the Cedarburg Bog
(1993-10-01)Flowering phenology of 254 plant species was studied over eight growing seasons between 1984 and 1993. Most of the phonological observations were made along the Field Station's boardwalk in the Cedarburg Bog. We report on ... -
