Wildlife Monographs, Volume 213, Issue 1, November 2023., 2023 We developed a spatialized surface for the primary food of grizzly bears in southeast British Columbia. After using this huckleberry patch layer to model habitat selection, fitness, and density, in a bottom‐up top‐down paradigm, we found that huckleberry patches near forestry roads contribute very little to fitness and density.

Influence of landfill use on nest‐site selection and breeding success in white storks
Journal of Zoology, Volume 321, Issue 3, Page 175-187, November 2023., 2023 Breeding near landfills may determine habitat preference and selection in white storks, however breeding success depends on habitat quality in the surrounding area more than the distance to the landfill. Abstract Landscape transformation by humans through habitat degradation, agriculture intensification and urbanization results in the loss of natural ...

Systematic review of conservation interventions to promote voluntary behavior change
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Understanding human behavior is vital to developing interventions that effectively lead to proenvironmental behavior change, whether the focus is at the individual or societal level. However, interventions in many fields have historically lacked robust forms of evaluation, which makes it hard to be confident that these conservation ...

Obesity Reviews, Volume 22, Issue S5, Octubre 2021., 2021 Resumen El entorno alimentario es un factor importante que contribuye a las dietas poco saludables en la niñez y, por tanto, a las crecientes tasas de obesidad. Los países de Latinoamérica han recibido el reconocimiento internacional por su liderazgo en la implementación de políticas dirigidas a distintos aspectos del entorno alimentario.

Evaluating composted sewage sludge as a phosphorus fertilizer in wheat grown on soils with different properties. [PDF]
J Environ QualAbstract Urbanization generates significant amounts of sewage sludge (SS), with relatively high concentrations of plant nutrients such as phosphorus (P). When biochemically stabilized by composting, SS (composted sewage sludge [CSW]) can serve as a sustainable P source in agriculture, supporting a circular economy and reducing agriculture's dependence ...

Seasonal dietary niche contraction in coexisting Neotropical frugivorous bats (Stenodermatinae)
Biotropica, Volume 52, Issue 4, Page 749-757, July 2020., 2020 Abstract Tropical dry forests are characterized by punctuated seasonal precipitation patterns that drive primary production and the availability of fruits, seeds, flowers, and insects throughout the year. In environments in which the quantity and quality of food resources varies seasonally, consumers should adjust their foraging behavior to maximize ...

Taxing Flaring and the Politics of State Methane Release Policy
Review of Policy Research, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 6-38, January 2020., 2020 Abstract Methane is a potent greenhouse gas but it has received strikingly less social science attention than carbon dioxide in examining climate policy options. This article explores American state policy toward methane that is not captured and instead released into the atmosphere during oil and gas production.
