Spatial and Temporal Distribution and Abundance Microplastics in Lake Champlain Long-Term Monitoring Samples
(2017)Microplastics are particles less than 5mm in size, characterized as fibers, fragments, beads, foams, and pellets. Microplastics (MP) arise from four main processes: environmental degradation (UV exposure, mechanical and/or ... -
Species Verification of Peromyscus spp. through Salivary Amylase Gel Electrophoresis
(2014)Often field identification of sympatric organisms becomes difficult when species are morphologically and behaviorally similar. Additionally, regional traits unique to subspecies further confound typical field marking ... -
Square Roots of 2x2 Matrices
(2010)This paper is designed to pique the interest of undergraduate students who are familiar with the concepts of linear algebra. We investigate five methods of computing square roots of two-by-two matrices. Each method gives ... -
A Strange Liberation: Women and Male Continence in the Oneida Community
(2016-04-30)During the religious revival of the nineteenth-century, known as the Second Great Awakening, several Perfectionist communitarian societies were established in the United States. One such society was the Oneida Community, ... -
The Stuttering Brain: Activation Patterns and Anatomy Differences
(2014)The brain activation and anatomy differences seen in people who stutter is examined. The significance of right hemisphere overactivation and left hemisphere activation patterns, as well as pertinent gray and white matter ... -
Sums across Pascal's triangle modulo 2
(Congressus Numerantium, 2010)We consider sums of the binomial coefficients C(i + j, i) modulo 2 over lines ai + bj = n. Many interesting sequences (old and new) arise this way. -
SUNY Plattsburgh Taxidermy Collection 2010 Inventory
(2014)During Hudson renovations 10 cabinets were found which contained a valuable collection of specimens ranging from invertebrate shells to endangered bird eggs, and local mammals. The focus of our research has been to preserve, ... -
Survey of Artificial Nest Boxes and Tree Cavities for Secondary Cavity Nesting Avifauna in Northern New York
(2017)Cavity nesting species use tree holes which result from either prior excavation activity or decay due to branch damage or disease. These tree cavities serve as an important refuge for safety, shelter, and nesting sites. ... -
A Survey of Microplastic Pollution from Wastewater Treatment Plant Effluent Within the Lake Champlain Basin
(2019-05)Microplastics are an emerging and ubiquitous pollutant. Recent studies suggest that consumer care products and laundering of synthetic garments are major sources of microplastics. Most current wastewater treatment plant ... -
A Survey of Microplastics in Invertebrates in the Lake Champlain Basin
(2018)The goal of this research was to determine whether microplastics (MP) were ingested by aquatic macroinvertebrates resident to Lake Champlain. We did so by quantifying and characterizing (e.g., fragment, fiber, film, foam, ... -
A Survey of Microplastics in Wastewater Treatment Plant Effluent in the Lake Champlain Basin
(2017)Microplastic pollution researchers are beginning to quantify, characterize, and collaborate on finding solutions to this emerging pollution problem. Recent studies have documented consumer care products and laundering of ... -
Survey of Migratory Waterfowl on Krystal Lake Quarry Pond, Chazy, NY
(2014)Nitrogen and phosphorus addition from fecal matter of Branta canadensis (Canada geese), Chen caerulescens (Snow geese), and other migratory waterfowl can impact water quality in a lake ecosystem. Krystal Lake is an 18m ... -

A survey of northern white-cedar (Thuja occidentalis) limestone woodlands at Point au Roche State Park, New York
(Scientia Discipulorum: SUNY Plattsburgh, 2011)Limestone woodlands are an ecological community type identified by the New York Natural Heritage Program. These communities are characterized by shallow soil over limestone bedrock. Two northern white-cedar (Thuja occidentalis) ... -
Survey of Small Mammals on the Altona Flat Rock and the Gadway Sandstone Pavement Barren
(2014)Sympatric species that compete over similar resources should not be able to coexist without niche partitioning. White-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus) and deer mice (P. maniculatus) both share similar habitat and resources. ... -
Survey of the Abundance and Distribution of Nurdles and Microplastics in Long-term Monitoring Zooplankton Samples from Lake Champlain
(2016)Microplastics are particles less than 5mm in size, characterized as fibers, fragments, beads,foams, and pellets. Microplastics arise from four main processes: environmental degradation(UV exposure, mechanical and/or ... -
