title: POD! Water-Quality Phytoplankton species composition

description: Phytoplankton data through July 2007. It's in a crosstab format (station and date down the side, with genus names across the top). It's a fairly hefty dataset (about 5000 sampling events). Genera that had less than 10 records for the entire dataset were eliminated. ~ 90 genera total. There are some samples where no phytoplankton were seen; in these cases you will see zeros across all the rows. The values given are organisms per milliliter. Station and genus metadata are included. A quick note about some of the taxa: we see a lot of benthic taxa in our samples because they become entrained in the water column. Practically all our pennate diatoms are benthic. The taxon "unidentified flagellate" is any flagellate thing we see that can't be identified (I think this is usually because they are not algae, but heterotrophic protists). All of our algal flagellates (i.e. cryptomonads, flagellated green algae) are usually identified, unless they're too damaged. I think this is rare, though; I think the majority of our algal flagellates can be identified, so very few would ever be called "unidentified flagellate" As for the class and common names, I've gone off the most recent stuff that I have. I don't particularly like calling a group of algae "yellow-brown" or "yellow-green" for 2 reasons: 1) frankly, it doesn't tell you much about the group, and 2) many taxa in different classes share pigments, and will have a similar color. Something like "haptophyte" gives you a much better idea of where the alga belongs taxonomically. Lastly, I've used the term "cyanobacteria" instead of "blue-green algae" for a common name for the class Cyanophyceae. I prefer the term "cyanobacteria" because they are the only group of algae that are prokaryotic.

title: Methane fluxes from an Alaskan rich fen (APEX)

description: Methane fluxes were collected at APEX rich fen during the summers of 2005 and 2006. APEX Fen is located in the Bonanza Creek LTER outside of Fairbanks, AK.

title: Cross-system synthesis of consumer and nutrient resource control on producer biomass

description: Nutrient availability and herbivory control the biomass of primary producer communities to varying degrees across ecosystems. Ecological theory, individual experiments in many different systems, and system-specific quantitative reviews have suggested that 1) bottom-up control is pervasive but top-down control is more influential in aquatic habitats relative to terrestrial systems, and 2) bottom-up and top-down forces are interdependent, with statistical interactions that synergize or dampen relative influences on producer biomass. We used simple dynamic models to review ecological mechanisms that generate independent versus interactive responses of community-level biomass. We calibrated these mechanistic predictions with the metrics of factorial meta-analysis and tested their prevalence across freshwater, marine and terrestrial ecosystems with a comprehensive meta-analysis of 191 factorial manipulations of herbivores and nutrients. Our analysis showed that producer community biomass increased with fertilization across all systems, although increases were greatest in freshwater habitats. Herbivore removal generally increased producer biomass in both freshwater and marine systems, but its effects were inconsistent on land. With the exception of marine temperate rocky reef systems that showed positive synergism of nutrient enrichment and herbivore removal, experimental studies showed limited support for statistical interactions between nutrient and herbivory treatments on producer biomass. Top-down control of herbivores, compensatory behavior of multiple herbivore guilds, spatial and temporal heterogeneity of interactions, and herbivore-mediated nutrient recycling may lower the probability of consistent interactive effects on producer biomass. Continuing studies should expand the temporal and spatial scales of experiments, particularly in understudied terrestrial systems; broaden factorial designs to manipulate independently multiple producer resources (e.g. nitrogen, phosphorus, light), multiple herbivore taxa or guilds (e.g. vertebrates and invertebrates), and multiple trophic levels; and - in addition to measuring producer biomass - assess the responses of species diversity, community composition, and nutrient status.

title: Species 2000 Web site

description: This is a link to the Species 2000 database website. The Species 2000 programme has the aim of creating a uniform and validated index to the world's known species for use as a practical tool in inventorying and monitoring biodiversity worldwide. The index will be used to provide: electronic species lists for use in inventorying projects worldwide, the index for an Internet gateway to species databases worldwide, a reference system for comparison between inventories a comprehensive world-wide catalogue for checking the status, classification and naming of species. The Programme was established by the international scientific unions IUBS, CODATA and IUMS, subsequently endorsed by UNEP in its Biodiversity Work programme, and is associated with the Clearing House Mechanism of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity. It was endorsed by a number of taxonomic database organisations at an Inaugural GEF-funded Workshop at ICLARM in Manila in 1996, and is now being run as a separate legal entity by an international team of scientists. This Project Management Team meets two or three times a year at various locations around the world, to promote the activities of Species 2000, to manage the project, to meet with sponsors, potential users, and with taxonomic database organisations. Recent meetings have been in the UK, in Taiwan, in St Louis MO and Washington DC, in the Netherlands, in France, and in Manila; future locations include Japan.
