Dynamics of a recovering Arctic bird population: the importance of climate, density dependence, and site quality

Creator:: Bruggeman, Jason E., Swem, Ted, Andersen, David E., Kennedy, Patricia L., and Nigro, Debora
Abstract:: Intrinsic and extrinsic factors affect vital rates and population-level processes, and understanding these factors is paramount to devising successful management plans for wildlife species. For example, birds time migration in response, in part, to local and broadscale climate fluctuations to initiate breeding upon arrival to nesting territories, and prolonged inclement...

Patterns of loggerhead turtle ontogenetic shifts revealed through isotopic analysis of annual skeletal growth increments

Creator:: Ramirez, Matthew D., Avens, Larisa, Seminoff, Jeffrey A., Goshe, Lisa R., and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: Ontogenetic changes in resource use often delimit transitions between life stages. Ecological and individual factors can cause variation in the timing and consistency of these transitions, ultimately affecting community and population dynamics through changes in growth and survival. Therefore, it is important to document and understand behavioral and life history...

Estimating wind-turbine-caused bird and bat fatality when zero carcasses are observed

Creator:: Huso, Manuela M. P., Dalthorp, Dan, Dail, David, and Madsen, Lisa
Abstract:: Many wind-power facilities in the United States have established effective monitoring programs to determine turbine-caused fatality rates of birds and bats, but estimating the number of fatalities of rare species poses special difficulties. The loss of even small numbers of individuals may adversely affect fragile populations, but typically, few (if...

Beyond arctic and alpine: the influence of winter climate on temperate ecosystems

Creator:: Ladwig, Laura M., Petrie, Matthew D., Reinmann, Andrew B., Smith, Jane G., Ratajczak, Zak R., Ocheltree, Troy W., Hafich, Katya A., Churchill, Amber C., Frey, Sarah J. K., Fuss, Colin B., Kazanski, Clare E., and Muñoz, Juan D.
Abstract:: Winter climate is expected to change under future climate scenarios, yet the majority of winter ecology research is focused in cold-climate ecosystems. In many temperate systems, it is unclear how winter climate relates to biotic responses during the growing season. The objective of this study was to examine how winter...

Reconciling Conflicting Phylogenies in the Origin of Sweet Potato and Dispersal to Polynesia

Creator:: Muñoz-Rodríguez, Pablo, Carruthers, Tom, Wood, John R.I., Williams, Bethany R.M., Weitemier, Kevin, Kronmiller, Brent, Ellis, David, Anglin, Noelle L., Longway, Lucas, Harris, Stephen A., Rausher, Mark D., Kelly, Steven, Liston, Aaron, and Scotland, Robert W.
Abstract:: The sweet potato is one of the world’s most widely consumed crops, yet its evolutionary history is poorly understood. In this paper, we present a comprehensive phylogenetic study of all species closely related to the sweet potato and address several questions pertaining to the sweet potato that remained unanswered. Our...

Dataset: Experimental evaluation of herbicide use on biodiversity, ecosystem services and timber production tradeoffs in forest plantations.

Creator:: Thomas D. Stokely
Abstract:: This dataset includes species richness of native plants, pollinators and birds as well as 13 proxies for ecosystem services representing timber production, culturally-valued plants and animals, and regulating services tied to forest productivity. The data were collected from an experiment conducted in the Oregon Coast Range USA that sought to...

The consequences of photoperiodism for organisms in new climates

Creator:: Grevstad, Fritzi S. and Coop, Leonard B.
Abstract:: A change in climate is known to affect seasonal timing (phenology) of the life stages of poikilothermic organisms whose development depends on temperature. Less understood is the potential for even greater disruption to the life cycle when a phenology shift exposes photoperiod-sensitive life stages to new day lengths. We present...

Are large macroalgal blooms necessarily bad? nutrient impacts on seagrass in upwelling-influenced estuaries

Creator:: Hessing-Lewis, Margot L., Hacker, Sally D., Menge, Bruce A., McConville, Sea-oh, and Henderson, Jeremy
Abstract:: Knowledge of nutrient pathways and their resulting ecological interactions can alleviate numerous environmental problems associated with nutrient increases in both natural and managed systems. Although not unique, coastal systems are particularly prone to complex ecological interactions resulting from nutrient inputs from both the land and sea. Nutrient inputs to coastal...

Scale considerations for integrating forest inventory plot data and satellite image data for regional forest mapping

Creator:: Ohmann, Janet L., Gregory, Matthew J., and Roberts, Heather M.
Abstract:: The integration of satellite image data with forest inventory plot data is a popular approach for mapping forest vegetation over large regions. Several methodological choices regarding spatial scale, mostly related to spatial resolution or grain, can profoundly influence forest maps developed from plot and imagery data. Yet often the consequences...

An Online Database for Informing Ecological Network Models: http://kelpforest.ucsc.edu

Creator:: Beas-Luna, Rodrigo, Novak, Mark, Carr, Mark H., Tinker, Martin T., Black, August, Caselle, Jennifer E., Hoban, Michael, Malone, Dan, and Iles, Alison
Abstract:: Ecological network models and analyses are recognized as valuable tools for understanding the dynamics and resiliency of ecosystems, and for informing ecosystem-based approaches to management. However, few databases exist that can provide the life history, demographic and species interaction information necessary to parameterize ecological network models. Faced with the difficulty...
