متن کاملSnow-mediated ptarmigan browsing and shrub expansion in arctic Alaska1
Large, late-winter ptarmigan migrations heavily impact the shoot, plant, and patch architecture of shrubs that remain above the snow surface. Ptarmigan browsing on arctic shrubs was assessed in the vicinity of Toolik Lake, on the north side of the Brooks Range in Alaska. Data were collected in early May 2007, at maximum snow depth, after the bulk of the ptarmigan migration had passed through th...
متن کاملModelling xanthophyll photoprotective activity in phytoplankton
A numerical model describing xanthophyll dynamics in phytoplankton has been developed and used to investigate cellular photoprotective response. The model assumes that, under the transition from limiting to supra-saturating light, the xanthophyll cycling pigments (PX) synthesis implies first (on a time scale of tens of minutes) a stoichiometric conversion of the already existing fucoxanthin (FU...
متن کاملHelminth community structure in two species of arctic-breeding waterfowl
Climate change is occurring rapidly at high latitudes, and subsequent changes in parasite communities may have implications for hosts including wildlife and humans. Waterfowl, in particular, harbor numerous parasites and may facilitate parasite movement across broad geographic areas due to migratory movements. However, little is known about helminth community structure of waterfowl at northern ...
متن کاملInfluence of leaf angle on photosynthesis and the xanthophyll cycle in the tropical tree species Acacia crassicarpa.
We examined the effects of artificially altering leaf angle of the tropical tree species Acacia crassicarpa (A. Cunn. ex Benth., Fabaceae) on light interception, leaf temperature and photosynthesis in the wet and dry seasons of tropical Australia. Reducing leaf angle from the natural near-vertical angle (90 degrees ) to 67.5, 45, 22.5 and 0 degrees greatly increased light interception and leaf ...
