Characterization of basal seminal traits and semen cryopreservation in Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis)

Theriogenology Wild, 2023
Little is known about the reproductive biology of the Canada lynx; virtually no data are available describing seminal parameters in this species and sperm cryopreservation studies have not been performed. Our aims were to 1) evaluate effectiveness of two

What next? Rewilding as a radical future for the British countryside [PDF]

, 2015
Rewilding is an optimistic environmental agenda to reverse the loss of biodiversity and reconnect society with nature. This chapter explores Britain’s ecological history, back to the Last Interglacial before the arrival of modern humans, when the climate

Salvage logging after an insect outbreak reduces occupancy by snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus) and their primary predators

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019
Salvage logging after a natural disturbance is controversial because it may disrupt forest succession and reduce the value of wildlife habitat, but few studies have examined consequences on predator-prey systems.

Predicting forest understory habitat for Canada lynx using LIDAR data

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2019
Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) is a federally threatened species in the contiguous United States. Within National Forests covered by the Northern Rockies Lynx Management Direction, Federal land managers must consider the effect of management activities on

Dining with a glutton: an intraguild interaction between scavenging wolverine (Gulo gulo) and lynx (Lynx canadensis)

Ecosphere, 2023
Intraspecific interactions between mesocarnivores are not commonly observed and consequentially not well understood, particularly for species inhabiting wilderness regions.

Long-term monitoring in the boreal forest reveals high spatio-temporal variability among primary ecosystem constituents

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
The boreal forest, the world’s largest terrestrial biome, is undergoing dramatic changes owing to anthropogenic stressors, including those of climate change.

Restoration Ecology: Two-Sex Dynamics and Cost Minimization [PDF]

, 2013
We model a spatially detailed, two-sex population dynamics, to study the cost of ecological restoration. We assume that cost is proportional to the number of individuals introduced into a large habitat. We treat dispersal as homogeneous diffusion.

Canada lynx foraging strategies: Facultative specialists become obligate generalists toward the distribution edge

Ecosphere, 2023
Spatial and temporal variation in prey availability can affect predator foraging strategies, but it is unclear how large‐scale gradients in prey availability shape predator diets in space and time.

Terrestrial and Airborne Lidar to Quantify Shrub Cover for Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis) Habitat Using Machine Learning

Remote Sensing, 2023
The Canada lynx is listed as a threatened species, and as such, the identification and conservation of lynx habitats is of significant concern. Lynxes require areas with high amounts of horizontal cover made up of ground vegetation. Lidar offers a robust

Evolution of the Color-Magnitude Relation in Galaxy Clusters at z ~1 from the ACS Intermediate Redshift Cluster Survey [PDF]

, 2008
We apply detailed observations of the Color-Magnitude Relation (CMR) with the ACS/HST to study galaxy evolution in eight clusters at z~1. The early-type red sequence is well defined and elliptical and lenticular galaxies lie on similar CMRs.
