Episode #22 The Intermediate Disturbance Hypothesis

Grace, Jon, and Jeff talk Intermediate Disturbance Hypothesis (IDH), the idea that diversity peaks at "intermediate" levels of disturbance. We also preview ESA 2017 and ponder the relationship between food quality and the amount of taxidermy in North Wood's bars.
