EEB Prelim Seminar Series - Stress and the anthropocene: investigating changing facilitative and competitive interactions in novel ecosystems
Hanna Petroski, PhD student, Howard Lab
Summary: Human activity has changed the stressors natural systems are subjected to, producing novel ecoystems. However, stress responses differ over the short- and long-term, and gaps remain in the literature about expected ecosystem responses to persistent stress increases. In my dissertation, I will make use of existing LTERs to examine how legacy effects of land management history influence facilitative plant-microbe responses to drought as well as how plant competitive traits respond to short- and long-term nitrogen deposition.
