DESCRIPTION: \n\nPhD Oral Defense of Nicola Craig\, Natural Resource Scienc
 es\n\nOver the past several decades\, increases in concentrations of disso
 lved organic carbon (DOC) have been observed in many north temperate aquat
 ic ecosystems\, a phenomenon known as aquatic 'browning'. However the ecol
 ogical consequences of this increase are not well understood. DOC from ter
 restrial sources stain lake waters a dark brown color\, and can have stron
 g effects on the physical and biological structure of lake ecosystems. Thi
 s occurs through its associated light and heat attenuating properties\, wh
 ich reduce thermocline depths\, and thus the area of light\, warm\, and we
 ll-oxygenated habitat in DOC-rich lakes. Recent work has shown that fish p
 roductivity decreases along a gradient of increasing DOC\, however the mec
 hanisms behind this have not been fully explored. Here\, Nicola demonstrat
 es potential mechanisms for this loss in productivity by determining how D
 OC affects zoobenthos\, a primary prey item for many fish\, as well as how
  DOC affects fish feeding efficiency and life history strategies.\n\nEvery
 one in the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ community is welcome to attend a PhD oral defense. Pleas
 e join us in celebrating the accomplishments of our PhD candidates.\n\n \n
