TL;DR: This paper conducted surveys of adults participating in municipally sponsored volunteer events in the Portland, OR metropolitan area in order to understand the range of attitudes and behaviors associated with volunteer work, and found that environmental identity, private pro-environmental behavior, and civic engagement were positively correlated with frequency of participation in stewardship events.

TL;DR: Dexter et al. as mentioned in this paper used permutation-based ecological null models to evaluate the fit of NMDS ordination via ordination "stress" (i.e., data distortion) against a commonly accepted set of heuristic guidelines.

TL;DR: It is revealed that PO4-P was the main environmental variable influencing the abundance of toxic and non-toxic cyanobacteria, as well as intracellular microcystin concentrations.

TL;DR: Bollens et al. as mentioned in this paper presented a paper on "Cascading Migrations and Implications for Vertical Fluxes in Pelagic Ecosystems", which has been accepted for inclusion in OEAS Faculty Publications by an authorized administrator of ODU Digital Commons.

TL;DR: The results indicate that while estuarine mesozooplankton are often omnivorous, important species-specific dif- ferences exist, and microzooplankton, especially ciliates, are an important component of the upper SFE food web.
