Figure 1 shows how having multiple species present in a plant community can stabilize ecosystem processes if species vary in their responses to environmental fluctuations such that an increased ...

Various fungi and prokaryotes then decompose the tissue and release inorganic nitrogen back into the ecosystem as ammonia in the process known as ammonification. The ammonia then becomes available ...

Previous research finds that neonicotinoids can “impede several freshwater ecosystem processes such as organic matter (‘OM’) decomposition, primary production or biomass transfer to neighbouring ...

"But it's worth thinking about. Should we actually be putting in other organisms as well, to restore other ecosystem processes that help the forest function? In the context of rainforest ...

Building from research in a University lab, Princeton Critical Minerals has tapped Princeton's innovation ecosystem to make ...

Common themes include plant-soil feedbacks, functional traits, species effects on ecosystem processes, and non-linear and threshold dynamics. Suding, K.N., K.L. Gross, and G. Houseman. 2004.

The ultimate goal is to improve our knowledge of how changes in land-use and/or climate will affect water resources and ecosystems. Our interdisciplinary research uses state-of-the-art techniques to ...

The Ecosystem Science Center (ESC) solicits student research grant proposals twice per year. This call is open to undergraduate and graduate students working with an ESC member on research related to ...
