Patrick
Eggleston did his M.S. thesis on endogenous rooting substances
of Malus sylvestris and several Prunus
species. His Ph.D. dissertation was on the energy
requirements of the crayfish, Orconectes rusticus ,
and its ability to utilize various species of algae as food.
Work
in progress:
Patrick
is currently working on a population study of diatom algae
in the Ashuelot River, southwestern New Hampshire.
In conjunction with this, he has worked three summers with
members of the Ashuelot River Local Advisory Committee and
other members of the community, to gather physical-chemical
data at ten sites along the 64 miles of the Ashuelot River.
Patrick has been looking at correlations between diatom
species numbers and the concentrations of some chemicals,
oxygen concentration, pH, and conductivity.
