Local Knowledge Graph (14 entities)

Knowledge graph centered on D. geminata mimic predation refuge experiment with 14 nodes and 27 connections. Top connected: species diversity, algae bloom, community composition, plant-pathogen interactions, invasive species establishment.

Description

Controlled experiment using flow-through tanks to test whether artificial D. geminata mats (polyester pillow stuffing) provide refuge for T. tubifex from stonefly predation. Treatments included presence/absence of mimic material and presence/absence of predator.

Typical Equipment

• 80 flow-through tanks
• portable weatherport
• polyester pillow stuffing
• substrata

Output Measurements

• T. tubifex survival
• predation mortality
