Productivity in streams is difficult to quantify, yet is among the most useful variables in ecology for explaining the distribution and abundances of organisms (e.g., Ideal Free Distribution Theory). This summer I will develop a fast, environmentally benign, and inexpensive methodology for quantifying diatom (single cell algae) productivity in streams. Using the new methodology, I will quantify diatom productivity at sites along a canopy gradient, and determine whether herbivore abundance (determined previously) can be predicted with productivity.
