Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term disease dynamics in lakes: causes and consequences of chytrid infections in Daphnia populations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the dynamics of Daphnia pulicaria, a keystone zooplankter in lake ecosystems, to explore the long-term causes and consequences of infection by a chytridiomycete parasitoid (Polycaryum laeve).
Journal ArticleDOI

Filling holes in regional carbon budgets: Predicting peat depth in a north temperate lake district

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the peat depth in the Northern Highlands Lake District (NHLD), a region in northern Wisconsin, United States, with 20% peatland by area.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of sediment mixing and benthic algal production on fossil pigment stratigraphies

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of sediment mixing and benthic algal production on fossil pigment profiles were quantified by fine-interval analysis of cores in a transect across the basin of Paul Lake, MI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exit time as a measure of ecological resilience.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use time series to fit a model that captures the stochastic as well as the deterministic components to estimate the mean exit time from the basin of attraction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Are rapid transitions between invasive and native species caused by alternative stable states, and does it matter?

TL;DR: Ass are possible, but by no means certain, explanations for rapid transitions in this system, and the results highlight the difficulties associated with distinguishing ASS from other types of threshold responses.
