Aspects of global change - specifically, elevated soil nitrogen deposition and warming - are resulting in significant changes in native plant communities. These effects can be direct through changes in productivity, or indirect through...
The effective conservation of threatened and endangered plants requires an understanding of population dynamics and the evaluation of factors that could reduce population growth. I constructed and analyzed a stage structured demographic...
The system including the congeners C. maculatus and C. chinensis has long been a model for competition studies. Members of these two pest species often cohabit facilities designed for the storage of dried legumes, a crucial nutritional...
In the Gulf of Mexico, barrier islands absorb the majority of the wind and wave action from storms, resulting in modification of dune morphology and vegetation dynamics. Understanding changes in dune vegetation in response to storms can...
Biodiversity continues to decline as many species face extinction. One way to mitigate possible extinction is to introduce new populations of a species to locations that the species does not currently occupy. Such introductions can...
The amount, composition, and configuration of habitat in the surrounding landscape can affect the structure of local communities, how those communities interact, and the ecosystem functions they perform. In the following chapters I...
Aging (senescence) is characterized by a decline in an individual's performances, including decreased fertility, increased mortality, and higher susceptibility to parasites and disease. Previous research has shown that aging is...
