A new species of western Atlantic lizardfish (Teleostei: Synodontidae: Synodus) and resurrection of Synodus bondi Fowler, 1939, as a valid species from the Caribbean with redescriptions of S. bondi, S. foetens (Linnaeus, 1766), and S. intermedius (Agassiz, 1829)

Creator:: Frable, Benjamin W., Baldwin, Carole C., Luther, Brendan M., and Weigt, Lee A.
Abstract:: Western Atlantic synodontid species were studied as part of an ongoing effort to reanalyze Caribbean shorefish diversity. A neighbor-joining tree constructed from cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) data revealed 2 highly divergent genetic lineages within both Synodus intermedius (Agassiz, 1829) (Sand Diver) and S. foetens (Linnaeus, 1766) (Inshore Lizardfish). A...

Ocean distribution of the American shad (Alosa sapidissima) along the Pacific coast of North America

Creator:: Pearcy, William G. and Fisher, Joseph P.
Abstract:: We examined the incidental catches of American shad (Alosa sapidissima) taken during research cruises and in commercial and recreational landings along the Pacific coast of North America during over 30 years of sampling. Shad, an introduced species, was mainly found over the shallow continental shelf, and largest catches and highest...

Watercourse-Upland and Elevational Gradients in Spring Vegetation of a Mojave-Great Basin Desert Landscape

Creator:: Abella, Scott R., Craig, Jill E., McPherson, Sara L., and Spencer, Jessica E.
Abstract:: Springs in arid lands provide critical habitat for a variety of species and functions to humans, yet the ecology and management needs of springs to maintain these values are poorly understood. To examine plant communities along spring watercourse-upland gradients, we sampled 12 springs at low (desert) and high (forest) elevations...

Comparing Ecoregional Classifications for Natural Areas Management in the Klamath Region, USA

Creator:: Sarr, Daniel A., Duff, Andrew, Dinger, Eric C., Shafer, Sarah L., Wing, Michael, Seavy, Nathaniel E., and Alexander, John D.
Abstract:: We compared three existing ecoregional classification schemes (Bailey, Omernik, and World Wildlife Fund) with two derived schemes (Omernik Revised and Climate Zones) to explore their effectiveness in explaining species distributions and to better understand natural resource geography in the Klamath Region, USA. We analyzed presence/absence data derived from digital distribution...

Ontogenetic patterns and temperature-dependent growth rates in early life stages of Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus)

Creator:: Hurst, Thomas P., Laurel, Benjamin J., and Ciannelli, Lorenzo
Abstract:: Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus) is an important component of fisheries and food webs in the North Pacific Ocean and Bering Sea. However, vital rates of early life stages of this species have yet to be described in detail. We determined the thermal sensitivity of growth rates of embryos, pref lexion...

Irrigation to Enhance Native Seed Production for Great Basin Restoration

Creator:: Shock, Clinton C., Feibert, Erik B. G., Shaw, Nancy L., Shock, Myrtle P., and Saunders, Lamont D.
Abstract:: Native shrublands and their associated grasses and forbs have been disappearing from the Great Basin as a result of grazing practices, exotic weed invasions, altered fire regimes, climate change and other human impacts. Native forb seed is needed to restore these areas. The irrigation requirements for maximum seed production of...

The effects of habitat, climate, and Barred Owls on long-term demography of Northern Spotted Owls

Creator:: Dugger, Katie M., Forsman, Eric D., Franklin, Alan B., Davis, Raymond J., White, Gary C., Schwarz, Carl J., Burnham, Kenneth P., Nichols, James D., Hines, James E., Yackulic, Charles B., Doherty, Paul F.

Mark, Hobson, Jeremy, Horn, Rob B., Huyvaert, Kathryn P., McCafferty, Christopher, McDonald, Trent, McDonnell, Kevin, Olson, Gail S., Reid, Janice A., Rockweit, Jeremy, Ruiz, Viviana, Saenz, Jessica, and Sovern, Stan G.
Abstract:: Estimates of species' vital rates and an understanding of the factors affecting those parameters over time and space can provide crucial information for management and conservation. We used mark–recapture, reproductive output, and territory occupancy data collected during 1985–2013 to evaluate population processes of Northern Spotted Owls (Strix occidentalis caurina) in...

Wintering ecology of sympatric subspecies of Sandhill Crane: Correlations between body size, site fidelity, and movement patterns

Creator:: Ivey, Gary L., Dugger, Bruce D., Herziger, Caroline P., Casazza, Michael L., and Fleskes, Joseph P.
Abstract:: Body size is known to correlate with many aspects of life history in birds, and this knowledge can be used to manage and conserve bird species. However, few studies have compared the wintering ecology of sympatric subspecies that vary significantly in body size. We used radiotelemetry to examine the relationship...

A meta-analysis of greater sage-grouse Centrocercus urophasianus nesting and brood rearing habitat

Creator:: Hagen, Christian A., Connelly, John W., and Schroeder, Michael A.
Abstract:: The distribution and range of the greater sage-grouse Centrocercus urophasianus have been reduced by 56% since the European settlement of western North America. Although there is an unprecedented effort to conserve the species, there is still considerable debate about the vegetation composition and structure required for nesting and brood-rearing habitat....

Seasonal and interannual variation in juvenile salmonids and associated fish assemblage in open waters of the lower Columbia River estuary

Creator:: Weitkamp, Laurie A., Bentley, Paul J., and Litz, Marisa N. C.
Abstract:: The transition between freshwater and marine environments is associated with high mortality for juvenile anadromous salmonids, yet little is known about this critical period in many large rivers. To address this deficiency, we investigated the estuarine ecology of juvenile salmonids and their associated fish assemblage in open-water habitats of the...
