ASLO 2019 - Plante Water: Challenges and successes

ASLO 2019 - Plante Water: Challenges and successes

This year we had the opportunity of attending the ASLO meeting in Puerto Rico, a great chance to reconnect with the lab! 

 

The entire lab presented their research results in the two poster sessions. 

Maldonado-Benítez, N.; Ramirez, A.: EFFECT OF URBANIZATION ON TROPICAL STREAM HABITATS AND THEIR ASSOCIATED DRAGONFLY FAUNA IN PUERTO RICO

Santiago-Vera, J.; Wilson, J.; Ramirez, A.: HURRICANE EFFECTS ON TROPICAL STREAM MEIOFAUNA: AN EXPERIMENTAL SIMULATION OF MAJOR ABIOTIC IMPACTS

Rodríguez-Ortiz, N.; Ramírez, A.: EFFECTS OF STREAM CHANNELIZATION ON HABITAT CONDITION AND MACROINVERTEBRATES IN URBAN STREAMS IN PUERTO RICO

Ortiz, G.; Ramírez, A.: INVOLVING COMMUNITIES LIVING ON SAN JUAN BAY ESTUARINE BASIN IN MACROINVERTEBRATE BIOMONITORING FOR AQUATIC ECOSYSTEMS CONSERVATION AND SUSTAINABILITY

Mariani-Rios, A.; Ramírez, A.: ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH DRAGONFLY ASSEMBLAGES AT EL YUNQUE NATIONAL FOREST

Reyes-Maldonado, R.; Ramírez, A.: CHIRONOMUS SP. FLORIDA AS EDUCATIONAL TOOL: POTENTIAL USES OF THE SPECIES IN PUERTO RICO

We also participated of a special session:
