Ground Beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) As Indicators Of Environmental Change In An Eastern U.S. Temperate Forest Subjected To Long-Term Precipitation Alterations

To address how human-induced climate change could affect terrestrial ecosystem processes, I conducted an experiment at the Throughfall Displacement Experiment (TDE), Oak Ridge National Laboratory, TN, to examine how long-term precipitation alteration in an intact forest affected important ground-dwelling fauna.
