Variation in scale number and type has been well studied in Teleost fishes however, variation in scale shape has received less attention. Given the well-documented role of environment and phylogeny on multiple aspects of ...
Resource subsidies can have profound effects on animal behavior, reproduction, and growth. Resource subsidies often result from human-altered environments that augment natural resources, creating small-scale enriched ...
The Blackside Dace (Chrosomus cumberlandensis; BSD) is a federally threatened minnow that has been extirpated from 31 streams in Tennessee and Kentucky since 1978. Although there is strong evidence linking elevated ...

Communication apprehension has been studies for over 2,000 years. Technology continues to develop, and more communication choices become available to an individual. These resources allow individuals to avoid face-to-face ...
Breast cancer is an increasingly common disease, with 1 in 10 women in the United States receiving a diagnosis of the disease during their lifetime. Taken alone, cancer of the breast is not particularly dangerous, however ...
The use of glucocorticoid hormones has become a powerful technique to assess the physiological and behavioral responses to stressful environmental changes. Glucocorticoids are metabolic hormones secreted by the ...
Acoustic communication is a well-studied behavior in many avian species. Bird song, used for defending territory or as a mating signal, is particularly well studied within avian vocalization. Variation within song between ...
In oviparous reptiles, parental care is often limited to the energy allocated to embryos prior to oviposition. Energy used by reproducing females is allocated towards, nutrient acquisition, fertilization, vitellogenesis, ...
Chapter 1 is a literature review of the taxonomic history of Clematis subg. Viorna. Chapter 2 is a morphometric study and taxonomic treatment of the Clematis reticulata species complex. Clematis subgenus Viorna of North ...
Wetlands are typically transitional habitats that represent a dynamic hydrologic gradient between terrestrial and aquatic systems. As hydrologic fluctuations within a wetland can cause the environment to become periodically ...
The Western Pennyroyal Karst Plain (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Ecoregion 71e, often shortened to “Pennyroyal Plain”) historically was composed of open oak savanna and tallgrass prairie, but its relatively flat ...
The highly metastatic breast cancer cell line, MDA-MB-231, exhibits an altered glycolytic process known as the Warburg effect. The Warburg effect is characterized by increased cellular influx of glucose, use of glycolytic ...
Grief has evolved throughout the digital age with the introduction of social media platforms and online support groups. This comparative content analysis focused on selected social media support groups and the interactions ...
