Jill Mikucki studies subglacial microbial diversity; studying this ecosystem could help us understand the “dark Edens” that may occur elsewhere in our universe! #symPIEsium2019

Cody Porter: Cassia crossbills have diverged in calls from ponderosa pine type RECR in the last 20 years; call divergence facilitates assortative flocking and likely assortative mating —> rapid cultural evolution. #symPIEsium2019

Macy Ricketts: Will be investigating the ancient microbial community at the La Prele mammoth site near Douglas, and how it changed over time. Stay tuned for results!#symPIEsium2019

Rob McMinn: Huge range of circadian period within Boechera stricta pops; the pops at low elevations have more variation than those at high elevations, possibly because high elevations are harsher and restrict circadian rhythm phenotypes. #symPIEsium2019

Dan @DoodleBugBio: temp is main predictor of recruitment in red-capped and blue-crowned manakins; but females are affected more by warm years than are males—their recruitment declines substantially. #symPIEsium2019

Alice Stears: leaf dry matter content is easy to measure and does a good job of predicting how well grassland plant spp can deal with drought —> allows us to predict shifts in community assembly under climate change. #symPIEsium2019

Lauren Azevedo Schmidt is using leaves deposited in Costa Rica riverbank sediments as modern analogues to fossil leaves deposited during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum. Also can learn about modern and ancient insect communities via leaf damage! #symPIEsium2019

Getting an Own It! award was the highlight of my semester. It means so much to me that people took the time to nominate me—Matt Carling and Rachel Watson, and mysterious individuals that I haven’t figured out yet. :) Thanks so much!!
