Small pond ecology : eutrophication, alternative stable states, and management options.
(Wheaton College (Norton, Mass.), 2014)"Nutrient pollution is a growing problem for freshwater bodies around the world. Cultural eutrophication associated with nutrient pollution can lead to unhealthy ecosystems with a lack of oxygen and biodiversity. This study ... -
Small pond water chemistry and algal ecology : a study of two eutrophic bodies.
(Wheaton College (MA)., 2018)Anthropogenic contamination of water bodies with excess nutrients and road salts has resulted in cultural eutrophication and freshwater salinization throughout the Midwestern and Eastern United States. This study focuses ... -
Soil fungal responses to multiple global change stressors.
(Wheaton College. (Norton, Mass.), 2022-05-16)Human activities have driven environmental changes such as soil warming, nitrogen enrichment, and non-native plant invasions, and all three of these global change drivers have been shown to alter soil fungal communities. ... -
