Abstract:
... Black willow and eastern cottonwood are fast-growing hardwoods native to river bottoms throughout the southeastern United States, e.g., the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley (LMAV), that are often grown as short rotation woody crops (SRWCs) because of their potential to provide high biomass yields in short periods of time. This study focused on developing allometric equations to estimate individua ...

Abstract:
... Coastal wetlands are one of the most valuable ecosystems; however, they have an uncertain future when faced with increasing sea-level rise (SLR) and both human-induced and environmental stressors. To better understand future marsh resiliency, we examined above- and belowground biomass, carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) tissue content and sediment characteristics along a coastal elevatio ...

Quinclorac resistance has been confirmed in smooth [Digitaria ischaemum (Schreb.) Muhl.] and large crabgrass [Digitaria sanguinalis (L.) Scop.]. Two Mississippi smooth crabgrass populations have been confirmed as quinclorac‐resistant. Field experiments were condu ...

The Macrhybopsis aestivalis complex (nine recognized species of small-bodied, riverine cyprinids) is predicted to have diversified allopatrically in response to prehistoric reorganizations of rivers tributary to the Gulf of México. To flesh out details of this hypothesis, we derived, from previous work, a mitochondrial (ND2) chronogram for interpretation against the background of a published nucle ...
