In this study, we used culture-independent methods to isolate and identify microbes in natural environments. We collected soil samples from different locations at the Field Station. The r-DNA of the microbes were sequenced to study bacterial phylogeny and taxonomy.

As a consequence, there is little evidence to support the widespread hypothesis that females &hellip; <\/div><\/div><\/li>\n<li><div class=\"post-content\"><a class=\"post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/news\/bat-activity-surveillance-monitoring-at-neda-mine-hibernaculum\/\">Bat Activity Surveillance Monitoring at Neda Mine Hibernaculum<\/a><div class=\"post-excerpt\">White-Nose Syndrome (WNS) has spread across 26 states and 5 Canadian provinces. The fungus Psuedogymnoascus destructans (Pd) that causes the syndrome has been found in four other states (MN, MS, NE and OK). This deadly disease has and continues to cause massive bat mortality in eastern North America.

How floral traits are shaped by the preferences of both pollinators and herbivores\/ seed predators is not fully understood.

The depth, density, and duration of the snowpack determine the climatic conditions of the subnivium, which are typically much milder due to the insulation provided by the snow.<\/div><\/div><\/li>\n<li><div class=\"post-content\"><a class=\"post-title\" href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/field-station\/news\/urban-pollination-study-of-green-roofs-on-the-uwm-campus\/\">Urban Pollination Study of Green Roofs on the 51ÁÔÆæ Campus<\/a><div class=\"post-excerpt\">Can green roofs help pollinators thrive alongside urbanization? While our cities continue to grow and green space becomes sparse, it is imperative that we supply pollinators with a resource-rich natural habitat.
