Sedimentary Ancient DNA Tracks Multi-Kingdom Ecosystem Reorganizations Following Sequential Human Land Use at Crawford Lake. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Crawford Lake has an exceptional stratigraphic record that began recording biannual (varved) sedimentation in the lake basin ~750 years ago, preserving evidence of shifting cultural zones and agricultural practices, from Late Woodland Period Indigenous agriculturalists to the impacts of industrialization during the late 19th century.

Subtype-specific influenza A virus antibodies in Canada geese (Branta canadensis). [PDF]

Vet Microbiol, 2015
Historically, surveillance for influenza A viruses (IAVs) in wild birds has relied on viral detection assays. This was largely due to poor performance of serological assays in wild birds; however, recently developed commercial serological assays have improved the ability to detect IAV antibodies in wild birds.

Variation in cloacal microbiota of Canada goose (Branta canadensis) across rural and urban areas in Illinois, USA [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiomes
IntroductionThe cloacal microbiota of birds is shaped by host factors, diet, environmental exposure, and increasing overlap between wild bird habitats and human development may influence these communities.

Determining the Environmental and Ecological Factors Associated With Poultry Farm Spillover of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (H5N1) in British Columbia, Canada. [PDF]

Zoonoses Public Health
ABSTRACT Introduction Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1, clade 2.3.4.4b is a global threat causing widespread outbreaks on poultry farms and high mortality among wild bird populations in Canada. Wild aquatic birds are generally recognised as key reservoir hosts for avian influenza viruses (AIV's).

Evaluating harvest liberalization strategies on population dynamics of southern latitude temperate‐breeding Canada geese

Ecosphere
The recovery of the Canada goose (Branta canadensis) is one of North America's greatest conservation success stories. Today, continental abundance of temperate‐breeding Canada geese (those breeding in southern Canada and lower 48 states in the United ...

The Secret Life of Tidal Marshes and Mangroves: Camera Trapping as a Window Into Wildlife Using North American Coastal Wetlands. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We conducted the first coordinated assessment of terrestrial wildlife across North America's vegetated coastal wetlands. Our study demonstrates the significant role coastal wetlands play in wildlife support, offers a model for broad‐scale wildlife studies, and highlights the importance of incorporating top‐down perspectives and a landscape approach ...
