Write a  succinct summary of the main points and findings of the article, and  then a more thorough review/critique. Include a full citation of the  peer-reviewed article using the format for the journal Ecology:

Include a URL link to the article so that I can find the original  article that you cited. Your paper should be at least one-page, but no  more than two pages, long and single-spaced. If you are citing  statements from the article, please paraphrase or put them in quotation.  Points will be deducted for grammatical errors, misspellings, and  poorly written sentences.
