Abstract: Grotto sculpin are a unique population of banded sculpin (Cottus carolinae), endemic to Perry County, Missouri. Grotto sculpin are found in only six cave streams and surface resurgence sites, and are believed to transition between cave and surface streams throughout their lifetime. Troglomorphic species are considered one of the most threatened groups of organisms world wide due to their limited range, specific habitat requirements, and limited biological information available. Basic ecological characteristics, like growth and life history, are crucial to understanding and conserving this unique fish. Grotto sculpin were sampled in two caves and their corresponding resurgence sites every four to eight weeks beginning in August 2005. Fish were measured for several parameters and implanted with an elastomer tag for mark-recapture analysis. Large numbers of young-of-year fish were observed on surface sites from spring through fall (May-October) before disappearing, presumably into the nearby caves. Length-frequency histograms of total length were compared from each sample site using FiSat software. Growth constants were found to be up to twice as high in surface streams as cave streams. We believe grotto sculpin are using these resurgence sites as nursery areas to allow young fish to grow quickly before entering into the caves, minimizing chances for cannibalism by larger sculpin after migration underground. |

Abstract: This paper explores the impact of Van Orden v. Perry and McCreary v. ACLU on attitudes toward public displays of the Ten Commandments. I analyze original panel survey data and find understanding the cases increases the probability of attitude change. |
