Movements of North Carolina Striped Bass, Morone saxatilis, Inferred through Otolith Microchemistry
(East Carolina University, 2014)Striped Bass, Morone saxatilis, is an anadromous, recreationally and commercially important fish species found throughout the U.S. Atlantic east coast, whose migrations have been intensely studied. A review of the relevant ... -
Multifunctional experimental assessment in a newly established Mediterranean restored marsh : marsh elevation, carbon accumulation and pollutant concentration reduction
(East Carolina University, 2014)The Delta of the Ebro River (Catalonia, Spain) is among the most important marsh areas in the Western Mediterranean Sea, highly valuable both economically and ecologically. Fluvial sediment reduction by dams in a relative ... -
Multiple Factors Influence the Strength of Intraguild Interactions
(East Carolina University, 2011)Species engaged in intraguild predation (IGP) not only compete for the same food resources but can also eat each other. In some cases, a predator species in a higher trophic position (i.e., a top predator) can eat a ... -
A Müllerian mimicry ring in Appalachian millipedes
(East Carolina University, 2009-06-16)Few biological phenomena provide such an elegant and straightforward example of evolution by natural selection as color mimicry among unrelated organisms. By mimicking the appearance of a heavily defended aposematic ... -
Natal Origin of Central Southern Management Area, North Carolina Striped Bass, Inferred from Otolith Microchemistry
(East Carolina University, 2013)Striped bass (Morone saxatilis) is an important commercial and game fish throughout North Carolina coastal waters. These fish have spawning populations present in all of the state's coastal rivers, however populations south ... -
NATIVE PLANT LANDSCAPING FOR POLLINATORS ON EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA SOLAR FARMS
(East Carolina University, 2019-07-15)Solar panel farms (SPFs) may be a part of a sustainable solution to pollinator decline and the loss of ecosystem services they provide. Some SPFs are seeking to landscape with diverse native seed mixes, which has the ... -

Neurological Effects Of A Single Low Level Blast Overpressure Exposure : Behavior And Micro RNA Mechanisms Of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury In A Rodent Model
(East Carolina University, 2015)The increased use of explosive devices within warfare and acts of terrorism has allowed blast overpressure exposure (BOE) to become a significant concern. The most common wound sustained by BOE is blast-induced mild traumatic ... -
Nickel as a mutagen and as an enabler of EMS genotoxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans
(East Carolina University, 2016-01-15)Nickel is found naturally and vital for survival of some organisms. Nickel occurs as a metal as insoluble compounds and soluble compounds. Nickel exposure has increased due to urbanization from various sources including ...
