  • Range Contractions of North American Carnivores and Ungulates 
    Laliberte, Andrea S.; Ripple, William J. (American Institute of Biological Sciences, 2004-02)
    We compared the historic and current geographical ranges of 43 North American carnivores and ungulates to identify large-scale patterns in range contractions and expansions. Seventeen of the species had experienced rang ...
  • Regional constraints to biological nitrogen fixation in post-fire forest communities 
    Yelenik, Stephanie; Perakis, Steven; Hibbs, David (Ecological Society of America, 2013-03)
    Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) is a key ecological process that can restore nitrogen (N) lost in wildfire and shape the pace and pattern of post-fire forest recovery. To date, there is limited information on how clim ...
  • Riparian litter inputs to streams in the central Oregon Coast Range 
    Hart, Stephanie K.; Hibbs, David E.; Perakis, Steven S. (The Society for Freshwater Science, 2013-01-23)
    Riparian-zone vegetation can influence terrestrial and aquatic food webs through variation in the amount, timing, and nutritional content of leaf and other litter inputs. We investigated how riparianforest community co ...
  • The Rise of the Mesopredator 
    Prugh, Laura R.; Stoner, Chantal J.; Epps, Clinton W.; Bean, William T.; Ripple, William J.; Laliberte, Andrea S.; Brashares, Justin S. (American Institute of Biological Sciences, 2009-10)
    Apex predators have experienced catastrophic declines throughout the world as a result of human persecution and habitat loss. These collapses in top predator populations are commonly associated with dramatic increases i ...
  • Social science research related to wildfire management: an overview of recent findings and future research needs 
    McCaffrey, Sarah; Toman, Eric; Stidham, Melanie; Shindler, Bruce (CSIRO Publishing, 2012-07-12)
    As with other aspects of natural-resource management, the approach to managing wildland fires has evolved over time as scientific understanding has advanced and the broader context surrounding management decisions has ...
  • The sustainability of timber production from Eastern Amazonian forests 
    Macpherson, Alexander J.; Carter, Douglas R.; Schulze, Mark D.; Vidal, Edson (Elsevier, 2012-04)
    Although the regulations are imperfectly enforced, logging firms in the Brazilian Amazon are subject to forest management regulations intended to reduce environmental damage and protect future forest productivity. Addi ...
  • Switching Hemispheres: A New Migration Strategy for the Disjunct Argentinean Breeding Population of Barn Swallow (Hirundo rustica) 
    Garcia-Perez, Belen; Hobson, Keith A.; Powell, Rebecca L.; Still, Christopher J.; Huber, Gernot H. (Public Library of Science, 2013-01-31)
    Background: Barn Swallows (Hirundo rustica) breed almost exclusively in the Northern Hemisphere. However, since the early 1980's, a small disjunct breeding population has become established in eastern Argentina, presumab ...
  • Thermal optimality of net ecosystem exchange of carbon dioxide and underlying mechanisms 
    Niu, Shuli; Luo, Yiqi; Fei, Shenfeng; Yuan, Wenping; Schimel, David; Law, Beverly E.; Ammann, Christof; Arain, M. Altaf; Arneth, Almut; Aubinet, Marc; Barr, Alan; Beringer, Jason; Bernhofer, Christian; Black, T. Andrew; Buchmann, Nina; Cescatti, Alessandro; Chen, Jiquan; Davis, Kenneth J.; Dellwik, Ebba; Desai, Ankur R.; Etzold, Sophia; Francois, Louis; Gianelle, Damiano; Gielen, Bert; Goldstein, Allen; Groenendijk, Margriet; Gu, Lianhong; Hanan, Niall; Helfter, Carole; Hirano, Takashi; Hollinger, David Y.; Jones, Mike B.; Kiely, Gerard; Kolb, Thomas E.; Kutsch, Werner L.; Lafleur, Peter; Lawrence, David M.; Li, Linghao; Lindroth, Anders; Litvak, Marcy; Loustau, Denis; Lund, Magnus; Marek, Michal; Martin, Timothy A.; Matteucci, Giorgio; Migliavacca, Mirco; Montagnani, Leonardo; Moors, Eddy; Munger, J. William; Noormets, Asko; Oechel, Walter; Olejnik, Janusz; Paw U, Kyaw Tha; Pilegaard, Kim; Rambal, Serge; Raschi, Antonio; Scott, Russell L.; Seufert, Gunther; Spano, Donatella; Stoy, Paul; Sutton, Mark A.; Varlagin, Andrej; Vesala, Timo; Weng, Ensheng; Wohlfahrt, Georg; Yang, Bai; Zhang, Zhongda; Zhou, Xuhui (New Phytologist Trust, 2012-03-07)
    It is well established that individual organisms can acclimate and adapt to temperature to optimize their functioning. However, thermal optimization of ecosystems, as an assemblage of organisms, has not been examined at ...
  • Trends in stream nitrogen concentrations for forested reference catchments across the USA 
    Argerich, A.; Johnson, S. L.; Sebestyen, S. D.; Rhoades, C. C.; Greathouse, E.; Knoepp, J. D.; Adams, M. B.; Likens, G. E.; Campbell, J. L.; McDowell, W. H.; Scatena, F. N.; Ice, G. G. (Institute of Physics, 2013-03-12)
    To examine whether stream nitrogen concentrations in forested reference catchments have changed over time and if patterns were consistent across the USA, we synthesized up to 44 yr of data collected from 22 catchments ...
  • Understanding ecohydrological connectivity in savannas: a system dynamics modelling approach 
    Miller, Gretchen R.; Cable, Jessica M.; McDonald, Alyson K.; Bond, Barbara; Franz, Trenton E.; Wang, Lixin; Gou, Si; Tyler, Anna P.; Zou, Chris B.; Scott, Russell L. (John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2011-07-07)
    Ecohydrological connectivity is a system level property that results from the linkages in the networks of water transport through ecosystems, by which feedbacks and other emergent system behaviours may be generated. We c ...
  • Use of change-point detection for friction–velocity threshold evaluation in eddy-covariance studies 
    Barr, A.G.; Richardson, A.D.; Hollinger, D.Y.; Papale, D.; Arain, M.A.; Black, T.A.; Bohrer, G.; Dragoni, D.; Fischer, M.L.; Gu, L.; Law, B.E.; Margolis, H.A.; McCaughey, J.H.; Munger, J.W.; Oechel, W.; Schaeffer, K. (Elsevier, 2013-04-15)
    The eddy-covariance method often underestimates fluxes under stable, low-wind conditions at night when turbulence is not well developed. The most common approach to resolve the problem of nighttime flux underestimation i ...
  • Wildlife Encounters by Lewis and Clark: A Spatial Analysis of Interactions between Native Americans and Wildlife 
    Laliberte, Andrea S.; Ripple, William J. (American Institute of Biological Sciences, 2003-10)
    The Lewis and Clark journals contain some of the earliest and most detailed written descriptions of a large part of the United States before Euro-American settlement.We used the journal entries to assess the influence o ...
