    Fish Distributions in Lake Ontario's Eastern Basin and the Upper St. Lawrence River: An Analysis Using GIS and Occupancy Modelling Techniques 

    Taylor, Eric
    Predictive models of species distributions are important tools for fisheries management. Unfortunately, these predictive models can be difficult to perform on large waterbodies where fish are difficult to detect and ...

    Evolutionary Ecology of Range Limits: Conceptual Syntheses and Empirical Tests 

    Hargreaves, Anna (2014-10-29)
    Understanding the environmental, demographic, and evolutionary processes underlying species’ range limits (RLs) is a primary goal of ecology, and increasingly important for conservation in a world of changing species ...

    Diversity and function of the soil microbiome in a North American forest in response to Alliaria petiolata (garlic mustard) invasion. 

    Duchesneau, Katherine
    The disruption of soil microbial communities is thought to be a major contributor to the expansion of invasive plants. Previous research has focused on identifying how invasive plants change soil microbial diversity and ...

    Phenotypic Plasticity Drives Phenological Change in Mandt's Black Guillemot (Cepphus Grylle MandtII) 

    Sauve, Drew
    The ability of individuals to change breeding time is predicted to be an important aspect of adapting to climate change. Changes in breeding time could occur through either behavioural adjustment of breeding time or ...

    Seasonal activity, depth distribution, and microhabitat associations of resident yellow-phase American eels (Anguilla rostrata) in the upper St. Lawrence River 

    Burliuk, Colleen
    The American eel (Anguilla rostrata) is an endangered species that inhabits fresh, brackish, and oceanic waters. Eels are elusive; little is known about their seasonal movements, depth distribution, and microhabitat ...

    Arboreal Calling Behaviour Across the Range of the Spring Peeper: Potential Consequences and Benefits 

    Cicchino, Amanda
    Understanding the trade-offs that affect potentially adaptive traits is fundamental to our understanding of evolutionary diversification and speciation. Heterogeneous landscapes may lead to spatial variation in such traits ...

    Evolutionary Constraints: Phenology and elevational range limits in an annual plant 

    Ensing, David
    All species have limits to their geographic distributions and many range limits are stable over centuries, indicating a failure to adapt to conditions beyond the range edge. This simple observation contradicts copious ...

    Assessment of the Effects of Habitat, Harvest and Community Interactions on the Abundance of Walleye Sander Vitreus in Inland Lakes Throughout Ontario 

    Holden, Jeremy (2012-09-25)
    Walleye (Sander vitreus) is an important species to the recreational fishery throughout Ontario. Fish community interactions between walleye and other species are rarely considered when establishing management targets ...

    Diatom Assemblages in Relation to Water-Depth Gradients in Eight Boreal Shield Lakes From Northwestern Ontario, Canada 

    Kingsbury, Melanie V. (2010-07-23)
    The uncertainty surrounding the impact of future changes in climate and water resources has created renewed interest on how lakes have responded to drought in the past. There is a need to determine potential future available ...
