Endangered Oarisma poweshiek butterfly larval foraging and adult habitat interactions in Manitoba, Canada
(University of Winnipeg, 2021-10-29)
The Poweshiek skipperling (Oarisma poweshiek) is endemic to the tall grass prairie in North America, and is now critically endangered globally. Existing populations are scattered amongst tall grass prairie remnants. However, ...
Effects of multigenerational exposure and phenotypic variation on a freshwater fish species exposed to elevated carbon dioxide (CO2)
(University of Winnipeg, 2021-08-11)
The amount of dissolved carbon dioxide (CO2) and the acidity of aquatic ecosystems is increasing as atmospheric CO2 concentrations increase due to human activities. Changes in pH and dissolved CO2 can have considerable ...
An Examination of the Effects of Elevated CO2 on Juvenile Salmonids
(University of Winnipeg, 2022-08-23)
This thesis explores the behavioural and physiological effects of elevated carbon dixoide (CO2) on freshwater, juvenile samonids. Arctic Charr, Rainbow Trout, and Brook Charr were each exposed to elevated CO2 over a two ...
The effect of environmental stressors on the development and behaviour of larval Oryzias latipes
(University of Winnipeg, 2020-05-08)
Elevated water temperature and dissolved carbon dioxide (CO2) are two environmental stressors that freshwater organisms face in the Anthropocene. Larval fishes are particularly susceptible to elevation in water parameters, ...
