Dominant bacterial taxa drive microbiome differences in juvenile Pacific oysters
The results of this study provide insight into how the microbiome of Pacific oysters may affect their early development, which can inform hatchery and nursery practices.
Environmental resistance model informs biogeography of aquatic invasions in complex stream networks
This research proposes a method to assess the distribution of environmental resistance of stream ecosystems to biological invasions by coupling multi-stage habitat potential models for non-native species.
Gray whales consuming microplastics through prey
By collecting and assessing microparticle loads in zooplankton prey and fecal samples of gray whales, researchers estimate their consumption rate of microparticles.
Human-centered Design as a Tool to Improve Employee Experience
Based on the Human-Centered Design, researchers conducted in-depth interviews to discover employee needs, evaluated data and proposed organizational strategies to improve employees' experiences.
Reimagining Critical Facilities Through Latinx Sense of Place
