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.

Sharing the same slope: Behavioral responses of a threatened mesocarnivore to motorized and nonmotorized winter recreation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2018
Winter recreation is a widely popular activity and is expected to increase due to changes in recreation technology and human population growth. Wildlife are frequently negatively impacted by winter recreation, however, through displacement from habitat ...

Selectivity and efficiency of predator control methods: a case study from a Mediterranean hunting ground

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Predator control is a widely used management tool worldwide to reduce the impact of opportunistic predatory species, but in some contexts where predators are controlled to reduce negative impacts on game species, there are concerns about the selectivity and efficiency.

Wolves and lynx: Plausible ideas make for testable hypotheses

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2012
We recently wrote an opinion piece (Ripple et al. 2011) hypothesizing that the presence of wolves (Canis lupus) could indirectly benefit Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) by suppressing competition with coyotes (Canis latrans). Subsequent comments by Hodges (

Ecology of declining populations of gray foxes (Urocyon cinereoargenteus) in Indiana, USA Ecología de las poblaciones en declive de zorros grises (Urocyon cinereoargenteus) en Indiana, EE.UU.

open access: yesWildlife Monographs, EarlyView.
We estimated seasonal space use, cover selection, and resource selection; evaluated gene flow and potential genetic barriers; and assessed cause‐specific survival rates and reproduction of radiomarked gray foxes in Indiana, USA. Our results provide evidence that gray foxes in Indiana are an edge species with relatively large home ranges, relatively low

Prey Partitioning in a Diverse Carnivore Community: Implications for Reintroduced Fishers in Washington

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Using fecal DNA metabarcoding, we quantified dietary overlap among reintroduced fishers and sympatric coyotes, bobcats, and Pacific martens in Washington's North Cascades. Niche overlap was substantial for common prey but varied with body size, revealing fine‐scale resource partitioning that may limit fishers' access to energetically efficient prey ...

Skin Abnormalities at Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy Initiation Are Associated With Skin Rash Development in Oncology Patients

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Skin tape strip lipidomic analysis revealed preexisting skin barrier lipid abnormalities at day 0 that were further exacerbated after 6 weeks of CPI treatment. Significant changes in skin (but not plasma) proinflammatory cytokines were identified in future ircAE patients after 6 weeks of CPI immunotherapy.

Speed Bump and Stock Market Quality: Evidence From NYSE American

open access: yesFinancial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Should trading speed of high‐frequency traders be regulated? Using the data from the New York Stock Exchange American, this paper examines the impact of a speed bump on market liquidity and price discovery. Our results indicate that the use of a speed bump can lower the costs of adverse selection through reducing informed trading.

Data‐free speculation does not make for testable hypotheses: A reply to Ripple et al.

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2012
The role of top predators in structuring ecosystems is receiving substantial attention from ecologists. Ripple et al. (2011) recently posed a tentatively supported hypothesis that wolves (Canis lupus) may help restore populations of the U.S.
