Application of habitat association models across regions: Useful explanatory power retained in wetland bird case study

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Species often exhibit regionally specific habitat associations, so habitat association models developed in one region might not be accurate or even appropriate for other regions. Three programs to survey wetland‐breeding birds covering (respectively) Great Lakes coastal wetlands, inland Great Lakes wetlands, and the Prairie Pothole Region ...

King rail (Rallus elegans) home range and microhabitat characteristics in western Lake Erie coastal marshes

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
We studied microhabitat and home‐range characteristics of the king rail, a secretive marsh bird of conservation concern, in the western Lake Erie region. Our results suggest that king rails in the region have mean home‐range sizes of 8.8 ha (±1.63 [SE]; range = 1.9 to 15.8) and utilize water depths of 6 to 17 cm within dense vegetation.

Yellow rail auditory detection during the non‐breeding season

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 87, Issue 3, April 2023., 2023
Yellow rails were recently recorded producing a previously undocumented vocalization in a coastal Texas salt marsh in January 2022. We found that this vocalization can be used to elicit the same vocalization in response during call‐playback surveys, and autonomous recording unit recordings demonstrate that yellow rails will also give this call ...

Black mangrove growth and root architecture in recycled glass sand: testing a new substrate for coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.

Effects of low‐tech, process‐based restoration on riparian plant communities and soil moisture of streams in the Northern Great Plains (NGP) of the United States

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction Process‐based restoration is novel in livestock production systems of the Northern Great Plains (NGP), and limited region‐specific evidence can impede adoption. We investigated the effects of methods such as beaver dam analogs (BDAs) on NGP plant communities.

Patterns and processes in the epilithic communities of a stony lake shore. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
PhDThis study on the littoral of Crosemere has shown that complex direct and indirect interactions exist between larvae of the gallery-building caddis Tinodes waeneri, the filamentous macro-alga Cladophora glomerata, and the larvae of several species ...

Abundance estimates of eastern black rails in southeastern Colorado

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2026.
This study estimated eastern black rail (Laterallus jamaicensis jamaicensis) detection, occupancy, and abundance in southeastern Colorado. We found detection probability increased later in the season and later at night but decreased with ambient noise. Occupancy increased with residual vegetation height and detection of Virginia rail (Rallus limicola).

Riparian Bryophytes: An Overlooked Yet Important Habitat for Aquatic Macroinvertebrates in Interior Pacific Northwest (USA) Salmonid‐Bearing Streams

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
We investigated riparian bryophytes as habitat for aquatic invertebrates in an interior Pacific Northwest (PNW) salmonid stream system. Our results demonstrate that bryophytes are highly productive habitat for aquatic invertebrates in interior Pacific Northwest salmonid streams.

Transition Zones at the Changing Coastal Terrestrial‐Aquatic Interface

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Coastal soils are a significant but highly uncertain component of global biogeochemical cycles. These systems experience spatial and temporal variability in biogeochemical processes, driven by marsh‐to‐upland gradients and hydrological fluctuations.
