0070142GlazierThis six-month award will provide support for Douglas Glazier of Juniata College and an undergraduate student to plan a cooperative research project with Dr. Alberto Basset and his students at the University of Bologna, Italy. The objective of the project is to examine the ecological, bioenergetic, and life-history consequences of invasion of land and freshwater by marine isopod crustaceans; the Italian site provides several common species of marine, freshwater and terrestrial isopods. At the planning stage, Drs. Glazier and Basset will prepare for future field and laboratory experiments and observations that will test several hypotheses concerning potential physiological, bioenergetic and ecological causes of the life-history differences observed, and their population consequences. The long-term goal of the collaboration is to demonstrate that isopods are excellent model systems for studying the "macroevolutionary ecology" of major habitat shifts, and to increase understanding

0070142 Glazier这个为期六个月的奖项将为Juniata学院的道格拉斯Glazier和一名本科生提供支持，以计划与Alberto Basset博士及其学生在意大利博洛尼亚大学的合作研究项目。 该项目的目标是研究海洋等足类甲壳类动物入侵陆地和淡水的生态、生物能量和生命史后果;意大利的场地提供了海洋、淡水和陆地等足类动物的几种常见物种。 在规划阶段，Glazier和Basset博士将为未来的实地和实验室实验和观察做准备，这些实验和观察将测试有关观察到的生活史差异的潜在生理学，生物能量和生态学原因及其人口后果的几种假设。 合作的长期目标是证明等足类动物是研究主要栖息地变化的“宏观进化生态学”的优秀模型系统，并增加理解
