Assessing Organic Matter Breakdown and Associated Macroinvertebrate Community Structure in Headwater Streams: Effects of Hydrologic Gradients and Upland Timber Harvesting
… My findings indicate that when water is present, organic matter processing will function similarly to downstream reaches that have continual water flow. During seasonal flow patterns, macroinvertebrate communities associated with organic matter are present in temporary streams and may exceed …

Comparison of Heterotrophic Activity in Forested Streams Originating from Wetland and Agricultural Tile Drainage Sources
… I compared heterotrophic activity (i.e., organic matter breakdown and benthic respiration) in forested streams originating from wetland and agricultural tile drainage sources over four seasons. I found a reduction in heterotrophic activity in the tile-sourced stream, particularly in the …
