Effects of Low-Density Feeding on Elk-Fetus Contact Rates on Wyoming Feedgrounds

Creator:: Creech, Tyler G., Cross, Paul C., Scurlock, Brandon M., Maichak, Eric J., Rogerson, Jared D., Henningsen, John C., and Creel, Scott
Abstract:: High seroprevalance for Brucella abortus among elk on Wyoming feedgrounds suggests that supplemental feeding may influence parasite transmission and disease dynamics by altering the rate at which elk contact infectious materials in their environment. We used proximity loggers and video cameras to estimate rates of elk-to-fetus contact (the primary source...

Natural-Channel-Design Restorations that Changed Geomorphology Have Little Effect on Macroinvertebrate Communities in Headwater Streams

Creator:: Ernst, Anne G., Warren, Dana R., and Baldigo, Barry P.
Abstract:: Stream restorations that increase geomorphic stability can improve habitat quality, which should benefit selected species and local aquatic ecosystems. This assumption is often used to define primary restoration goals; yet, biological responses to restoration are rarely monitored or evaluated methodically. Macroinvertebrate communities were inventoried at 6 study reaches within 5...

A realignment of marine biogeographic provinces with particular reference to fish distributions

Creator:: Briggs, John C. and Bowen, Brian W.
Abstract:: Marine provinces, founded on contrasting floras or faunas, have been recognized for more than 150 years but were not consistently defined by endemism until 1974. At that time, provinces were based on at least a 10% endemism and nested within biogeographic regions that covered large geographic areas with contrasting biotic...

Relationship Between Wildfire, Salvage Logging, and Occupancy of Nesting Territories by Northern Spotted Owls

Creator:: Clark, Darren A., Anthony, Robert G., and Andrews, Lawrence S.
Abstract:: The northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) is one of the most intensively studied raptors in the world; however, little is known about the impacts of wildfire on the subspecies and how they use recently burned areas. Three large-scale wildfires in southwest Oregon provided an opportunity to investigate the short-term...

Resource waves: phenological diversity enhances foraging opportunities for mobile consumers

Creator:: Armstrong, Jonathan B., Takimoto, Gaku, Schindler, Daniel E., Hayes, Matthew M., and Kauffman, Matthew J.
Abstract:: Time can be a limiting constraint for consumers, particularly when resource phenology mediates foraging opportunity. Though a large body of research has explored how resource phenology influences trophic interactions, this work has focused on the topics of trophic mismatch or predator swamping, which typically occur over short periods, at small...

Nest Success and Cause-Specific Nest Failure of Grassland Passerines Breeding in Prairie Grazed by Livestock

Creator:: Johnson, Tracey N., Kennedy, Patricia L., and Etterson, Matthew A.
Abstract:: Livestock grazing is a widespread source of habitat modification, and may affect populations of ground-nesting grassland birds by influencing rates of nest failure. Nesting attempts can fail for various reasons, and determining risk of failure from specific causes associated with livestock grazing would enhance development of range management practices in...

A Meta-Analysis of Lesser Prairie-Chicken Nesting and Brood-Rearing Habitats: Implications for Habitat Management

Creator:: Hagen, Christian A., Grisham, Blacke A., Boal, Clint W., and Haukos, David A.
Abstract:: The distribution and range of lesser prairie-chicken (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus) has been reduced by >90% since European settlement of the Great Plains of North America. Currently, lesser prairie-chickens occupy 3 general vegetation communities: sand sagebrush (Artemisia filifolia), sand shinnery oak (Quercus havardii), and mixed-grass prairies juxtaposed with Conservation Reserve Program grasslands....

Public lands and private waters: scarce mesic resources structure land tenure and sage-grouse distributions

Creator:: Donnelly, J. P., Naugle, D. E., Hagen, C. A., and Maestas, J. D.
Abstract:: Water scarcity in semiarid environments provides a model system to evaluate the role of mesic resources in structuring the distribution and abundance of wildlife. We used remote sensing and point process analyses to evaluate spatio–temporal variability in limited mesic resources in relation to greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) distributions in Oregon,...

Catch shares, fisheries, and ecological stewardship: a comparative analysis of resource responses to a rights-based policy instrument

Creator:: Essington, Timothy E., Melnychuk, Michael C., Branch, Trevor A., Heppell, Selina S., Jensen, Olaf P., Link, Jason S., Martell, Steven J. D., Parma, Ana M., Pope, John G., and Smith, Anthony D. M.
Abstract:: Rights-based approaches are potentially promising tools to meet conservation objectives in natural resource management. Here, we evaluated how population status and fishery production respond to catch shares, a rights-based policy instrument in fisheries whereby participants are granted a right to harvest a fraction of the allowable catch. By analyzing time...

Effect of age-based and environment-based cues on reproductive investment in Gambusia affinis

Creator:: Billman, Eric J. and Belk, Mark C.
Abstract:: We examined the multivariate life-history trajectories of age 0 and age 1 female Gambusia affinis to determine relative effects of age-based and environment-based cues on reproductive investment. Age 0 females decreased reproductive investment prior to the onset of fall and winter months, while age 1 females increased reproductive investment as...
