2007 journal article
Temporal and spatial variability in stable isotope compositions of a freshwater mussel: implications for biomonitoring and ecological studies
OECOLOGIA, 152(1), 140–150.
author keywords: Elliptio complanata; delta N-15; delta C-13; nutrient loading; tissue turnover; isotopic baseline
MeSH headings : Animals; Carbon Isotopes; Ecology; Environmental Monitoring; Food Chain; Geography; Hemolymph / chemistry; Nitrogen Isotopes; North Carolina; Rivers / chemistry; Unionidae / chemistry; Unionidae / metabolism
TL;DR:
It is concluded that bivalves serve best as biomonitors of chronic, rather than acute, fluctuations in stream nutrient loads, and initial evidence of their suitability as time-integrated isotopic baselines for community studies is provided.

Robustness and uncertainty in estimates of butterfly abundance from transect counts
POPULATION ECOLOGY, 49(3), 191–200.
author keywords: abundance; Bayesian statistics; estimation; parametric bootstrap; population monitoring
TL;DR:
It is found that estimates of population size are robust to departures from underlying model assumptions, but that the uncertainty in these estimates (i.e., confidence intervals) is substantially underestimated.

Experimental analysis of the auditory detection process on avian point counts
AUK, 124(3), 986–999.
author keywords: ambient noise; detection probability; measurement error; point counts
TL;DR:
Some of the inherent difficulties in interpreting avian abundance estimates based on auditory detections are illustrated, and why estimates that do not account for variations in detection probability will not withstand critical scrutiny are illustrated.

Environmental manipulation of growth and sexual maturation in yellow perch, Perca flavescens
JOURNAL OF THE WORLD AQUACULTURE SOCIETY, 38(3), 383–394.
TL;DR:
Using a CPCT regime during intensive fingerling production will produce a larger, more uniform fish population that could alleviate losses as a result of cannibalism, and confer the best overall growth performance.

Effects of temperature and nitrate on phosphomonoesterase activities between carbon source and sink tissues in Zostera marina L.
JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL MARINE BIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY, 342(2), 313–324.
author keywords: carbon metabolism; nitrate enrichment; phosphatase; sucrose synthase; seagrass; temperature; Zostera marina
TL;DR:
Analysis of alterations of phosphomonoesterase activity in a submersed marine angiosperm, Zostera marina, grown in P i non-limiting conditions under elevated temperature and/or nitrate enrichment found a mechanism that may allow Z. marina to alter its carbon metabolism during periods of increased carbon demand/mobilization.

An ant mosaic revisited: Dominant ant species disassemble arboreal ant communities but co-occur randomly
BIOTROPICA, 39(3), 422–427.
Contributors: N. Sanders *, G. Crutsinger*, R. Dunn n , J. Majer * & J. Delabie *
author keywords: assembly rules; Brazil; community structure; co-occurrence; null model; tropical diversity
TL;DR:
It is found that all ant species, regardless of dominance status or guild membership, co‐occur much less than expected by chance, suggesting that dominant species disassemble tropical arboreal ant communities.

Age-dependent tag return models for estimating fishing mortality, natural mortality, and selectivity
JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL BIOLOGICAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL STATISTICS, 12(2), 177–194.
author keywords: instantaneous mortality rates; near-singularity; parameter redundancy; striped bass; tag reporting rate
TL;DR:
This work analyzed multiple age class tag return data from a 13-year study on striped bass and saw clear evidence that selectivity increases with age, and investigates parameter redundancy and estimator performance using analytic and simulation methods, and shows that estimator properties are poor if the tag reporting rate is estimated (without auxiliary data such as planted tags).

TL;DR:
The IGFs have shared and disparate actions on ovarian follicle maturation among Morone species that appear to be linked to reproductive strategy and exhibit similarities in mechanisms of action.

A keystone ant species promotes seed dispersal in a "diffuse" mutualism
OECOLOGIA, 153(3), 687–697.
Contributors: A. Gove n, J. Majer * & R. Dunn n
author keywords: diversity; ecosystem function; functional redundancy; myrmecochory; Rhytidoponera
MeSH headings : Animals; Ants / physiology; Australia; Demography; Ecosystem; Plants; Seeds; Symbiosis
TL;DR:
The relative importance of ant activity, diversity and species identity in an ant seed dispersal mutualism at local, regional and continental scales is examined and it is suggested that superficially diffuse mutualisms may depend greatly on the identity of particular partners.
