The spread of invasive species and infectious disease as drivers of ecosystem change
TL;DR: Early detection and in-depth understanding of invasive species and infectious diseases will require an integrated network of research platforms and information exchange to identify hotspots of invasion or disease emergence, which can facilitate a full understanding of the resulting effects on ecosystems and society as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant production and soil microorganisms in late-successional ecosystems: a continental-scale study'
Donald R. Zak,David Tilman,Robert R. Parmenter,Charles W. Rice,Frederick M. Fisher,James M. Vose,Daniel G. Milchunas,C. Wayne Martin +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between aboveground net primary production (ANPP) and soil microbial biomass in late-successi onal ecosystems dis- tributed along a continent-wide gradient in North America was quantified.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Ecology and Evolutionary History of an Emergent Disease: Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome
Terry L. Yates,James N. Mills,Cheryl A. Parmenter,Thomas G. Ksiazek,Robert R. Parmenter,John R. Vande Castle,Charles H. Calisher,Stuart T. Nichol,Kenneth D. Abbott,Joni C. Young,Michael L. Morrison,Barry J. Beaty,Jonathan L. Dunnum,Robert J. Baker,Jorge Salazar-Bravo,Clarence J. Peters +15 more
TL;DR: During the identification period, physicians and medical staff made rapid progress in developing treatment methods to stabilize and sustain patients through the crisis period, thereby substantially improving patient survivorship; nonetheless, the mortality rate fell only to about 40%, where it remains today.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rodents, plants, and precipitation: spatial and temporal dynamics of consumers and resources
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined temporal correlations between precipitation, plant cover, and rodent density, with varying time lags using long-term data from two sites in the Chihuahuan desert of North America: the Sevilleta Long-term Ecological Research site (LTER), New Mexico, USA and a site near Portal, Arizona, USA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Guidelines for Working with Rodents Potentially Infected with Hantavirus
James N. Mills,Terry L. Yates,James E. Childs,Robert R. Parmenter,Thomas G. Ksiazek,Pierre E. Rollin,Clarence J. Peters +6 more
TL;DR: The procedures described are applicable for any study of populations of small mammals when an infectious zoonotic agent transmissible by aerosol and capable of causing high morbidity and mortality is involved.
