  • Lichen Functional Trait Variation Along an East-West Climatic Gradient in Oregon and Among Habitats in Katmai National Park, Alaska
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Kaleigh Spickerman for the degree of Master of Science in Botany and Plant Pathology presented on June 11, 2015 Title: Lichen Functional Trait Variation Along an East-West Climatic Gradient in Oregon and Among Habitats in Katmai National Park, Alaska Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Bruce McCune Functional traits of vascular plants have been an important component of ecological studies for a number of years; however, in more recent times vascular plant ecologists have begun to formalize a set of key traits and universal system of trait measurement. Many recent studies hypothesize global generality of trait patterns, which would allow for comparison among ecosystems and biomes and provide a foundation for general rules and theories, the so-called “Holy Grail” of ecology. However, the majority of these studies focus on functional trait patterns of vascular plants, with a minority examining the patterns of cryptograms such as lichens. Lichens are an important component of many ecosystems due to their contributions to biodiversity and their key ecosystem services, such as contributions to mineral and hydrological cycles and ecosystem food webs. Lichens are also of special interest because of their reliance on atmospheric deposition for nutrients and water, which makes them particularly sensitive to air pollution. Therefore, they are often used as bioindicators of air pollution, climate change, and general ecosystem health. This thesis examines the functional trait patterns of lichens in two contrasting regions with fundamentally different kinds of data. To better understand the patterns of lichen functional traits, we examined reproductive, morphological, and chemical trait variation along precipitation and temperature gradients in Oregon.

Bot. Fennici 51: 345–371. Ninety-seven ingroup specimens of Bryoria section Implexae (Parmeliaceae, Leca- noromycetes) were studied using molecular, chemical, morphological and geographic characters. The molecular data included nuclear ribosomal markers (ITS, IGS) and the partial glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) gene. In addition to par- simony analyses, a haplotype network was constructed. Phylogenetic analyses strongly supported the monophyly of the section Implexae. The specimens were grouped into two monophyletic clades. Clade 1 encompassed all esorediate material from North America, whereas Clade 2 included both sorediate North American material and all European material.

Lichens have long been used as indicators of late 20 successional habitats with particularly high conservation value because lichens are 21 ubiquitous, sensitive to fine-scale environmental variation, and some species 22 require old substrates. However, the efficacy of such lichen indicator systems has 23 rarely been tested beyond narrow geographic areas, and their reliability has not 24 been established with well-replicated quantitative research. Here, we develop a 25 continuous lichen conservation index representing epiphytic macrolichen species 26 affinities for late successional forests in the Pacific Northwest, USA. This index 27 classifies species based on expert field experience and is similar to the “coefficient of 28 conservatism” that is widely used for evaluating vascular plant communities in the 29 central and eastern USA. We then use a large forest survey dataset to test whether 30 the community-level lichen conservation index is related to forest stand age.

  • Air Quality Monitoring on the Tongass National Forest
    1 Air Quality Monitoring on the Tongass National Forest Methods and Baselines Using Lichens Linda H. Geiser, Chiska C. Derr, and Karen L. Dillman USDA-Forest Service Tongass National Forest/ Stikine Area P.O. Box 309 Petersburg, Alaska 99833 September 1994 2 Acknowledgments Project development and funding: Max Copenhagen, Regional Hydrologist, Jim McKibben Stikine Area FWWSA Staff Officer and Everett Kissinger, Stikine Area Soil Scientist, and program staff officers from the other Areas recognized the need for baseline air quality information on the Tongass National Forest and made possible the initiation of this project in 1989. Their continued management level support has been essential to the development of this monitoring program. Lichen collections and field work: Field work was largely completed by the authors. Mary Muller contributed many lichens to the inventory collected in her capacity as Regional Botanist during the past 10 years. Field work was aided by Sarah Ryll of the Stikine Area, Elizabeth Wilder and Walt Tulecke of Antioch College, and Bill Pawuk, Stikine Area ecologist. Lichen identifications: Help with the lichen identifications was given by Irwin Brodo of the Canadian National Museum, John Thomson of the University of Wisconsin at Madison, Pak Yau Wong of the Canadian National Museum, and Bruce McCune at Oregon State University. Much appreciation is due to both Dr. Brodo and Dr. Thomson for making the verification of the major portion of the collections possible. A number of specimens were also examined and identified by Trevor Goward at the University of British Columbia and by Bruce Ryan at Arizona State University. Preparation of herbarium specimens and database compilation: was coordinated by Karen Dillman, with help from Rick Schreiber, Paula Rak and Tara Lathrop of the Stikine Area.
