Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
- From birds to chipmunks, wildlife scrambling to harvest seeds.
- This year, aspen’s colors did not occur at the same time as in recent decades.
- Now we know that natural and industrial emissions from one continent can be seen and felt on distant continents. Distant emissions become local visions and inhalations.
- With pendant urns, this perennial lofts its seeds with feathery plumes.
- Butterfly species is fascinating when it comes to color variation.
- It appears that, for a plant that will flower only once, having offspring flower over a period of at least 40 years is a way of hedging one’s bets in an unpredictable environment.
- Adult buck moths earned the name by flying during fall deer hunting season.
- Two factors suggested that this spring and summer would witness extraordinary blooms of wildflowers on the ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Plateau. First of all, blooms in California were so colorful and extensive that they were easily visible from space and they
- The flight of sphinx moths is a marvel, for while hovering or accelerating the wings beat so fast that they emit a fluttering buzz — wingbeat frequencies are typically 41 cycles (up and down) per second.
- For evolutionary biologist Jeff Mitton, a trip to the Labyrinth Canyon Wilderness brought an added discovery.
