True and False Foodplants of \u3ci\u3eCallosamia Promethea\u3c/i\u3e (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) in Southern Michigan [PDF]
, 2017 A survey in 1980 of the associations of over 400 cocoons of Callosamia promethea Drury in vegetation along and adjacent to southern Michigan roadsides gave evidence for seven species of true larval foodplants (not including two others known in the area ...

Early evolutionary history of the seed
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...

Greater effect of increasing shrub height on winter versus summer soil temperature
, 2016 Shrub expansion is increasingly observed in arctic and subarctic environments. The development of shrub structure may significantly impact the abiotic environment at the local scale.

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a severe psychiatric disorder with structural brain alterations; however, the roles of cortical surface area (CSA) and cortical thickness (CTh) during adolescence remain unclear. Building on frequent reports of gray matter reductions in the cingulate cortex and precuneus, this study assesses CSA, CTh, and ...

Contrasting radiation and soil heat fluxes in Arctic shrub and wet sedge tundra
, 2016 . Vegetation changes, such as shrub encroachment and wetland expansion, have been observed in many Arctic tundra regions. These changes feed back to permafrost and climate.

Ecography, EarlyView.Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche changes, and truncation. Invasive species often occupy only a fraction of their potential environmental and geographic ranges, as their spatiotemporal dynamics ...
