Does a decision support tool designed to depict West Nile virus risk explain variation in ruffed grouse Bonasa umbellus use of managed forests?

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Infectious diseases are commonly cited as significant contributors to wildlife population declines. It is, therefore, important to investigate the extent to which tools designed to mitigate the effects of infectious diseases explain wildlife responses to habitat management.

Benefit or ecological trap? Monitoring the effects of small clear‐cuts on capercaillie Tetrao urogallus and its mammalian predators

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
The shift to ‘close to nature forestry' as the dominating forestry regime in western‐European forests has resulted in increasing timber volume and denser forests with negative effects on photophilic species. Hence, there is an increasing focus on active habitat management measures to support these species.

Effect of Freezing Temperature on Impact Bending Strength and Shore-D Hardness of Some Wood Species

open access: yesBioResources, 2022
Wood is exposed to variable environmental conditions during its use. Low temperature is one of the most important environmental factors affecting the behavior of wood in use.

Thermal analysis by TGA and DTA method of wood-polymer of furfurylated beech and fir wood [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات علوم چوب و کاغذ ایران, 2019
The present study was carried out with the aim of thermal analysis of furfurylated wood produced from beech (Fagus orientalis) and fir (Abies alba). In this regard, the specimens were saturated with two different levels of furfurylation in the form of ...

Monitoring the effects of ovariectomy on seasonal movement behavior in suburban female white‐tailed deer using internet of things‐enabled devices

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Abundant deer populations often cause conflicts in suburban communities, yet traditional population reduction methods, such as controlled hunting, can be challenging to implement. Fertility control, specifically through ovariectomy, can limit reproduction and reduce populations in certain settings, but its effect on movement behavior remains poorly ...

On engineering of properties of wood-polypropylene composite [PDF]

open access: yesGlasnik Šumarskog Fakulteta: Univerzitet u Beogradu, 2006
New materials based on wood have the advantage in the sense that their properties can be engineered so as to correspond to user demands. The properties which can be engineered are those relating both to their utilisation and machining, in particular ...

The wolf is back! Non‐consumptive effects of the return of a large carnivore on the use of supplementary feeding sites by roe deer

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding how prey species tradeoff predation risk and resource acquisition is particularly important for advancing our knowledge of predator–prey relationships. We investigated this by studying the use of concentrated anthropogenic resources, namely supplementary feeding sites, by roe deer Capreolus capreolus before and after grey wolf Canis lupus

Quantifying microhabitat selection of snowshoe hares using forest metrics from UAS‐based LiDAR

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Identifying the spatial and temporal scale at which animals select resources is critical for predicting how populations respond to changes in the environment. The spatial distribution of fine‐scale resources (e.g. patches of dense vegetation) are often linked with critical life‐history requirements such as denning and feeding sites.
