Alterations in forest detritus inputs influence soil carbon concentration and soil respiration in a Central-European deciduous forest
(Elsevier, 2014)In a Quercetum petraeaeecerris forest in northeastern Hungary, we examined effects of litter input alterations on the quantity and quality soil carbon stocks and soil CO2 emissions. Treatments at the Síkf}okút DIRT (Detritus ... -
Caddisfly behavioral responses to drying cues in temporary ponds: Implications for effects of climate change.
(The University of Chicago Press, 2016-02-11)Aquatic organisms that live at high latitudes and elevations are especially vulnerable to climate-change-induced alterations in snowpack, snowmelt, and evaporation rates, all of which affect basin filling and drying dates. ... -
High interspecific variation in nutrient excretion within a guild of closely related caddisfly species
(Ecological Society of America, 2018-05-21)Understanding the amount of variation in functional traits between closely related species within guilds is critical for understanding links between community composition and ecosystem processes. Nutrient excretion is an ... -
High interspecific variation in nutrient excretion within a guild of closely related caddisfly species
(ESA Journals, 2018-05)Understanding the amount of variation in functional traits between closely related species within guilds is critical for understanding links between community composition and ecosystem processes. Nutrient excretion is an ... -
An interaction between climate change and infectious disease drove widespread amphibian declines
(Wiley, 2018-11-28)Climate change might drive species declines by altering species interactions, such as host–parasite interactions. However, few studies have combined experiments, field data, and historical climate records to provide evidence ... -
The thermal mismatch hypothesis explains host susceptibility to an emerging infectious disease
(John Wiley & Sons, 2017-02)Parasites typically have broader thermal limits than hosts, so large performance gaps between pathogens and their cold- and warm-adapted hosts should occur at relatively warm and cold temperatures, respectively. We tested ...
