Long‐term benefits of burns for large mammal habitat undermined by large, severe fires in the American West

Ecography, EarlyView.
Escalating wildfire frequency and severity are altering wildland habitats worldwide. Yet investigations into fire impacts on wildlife habitat rarely extend to the macroecological scales relevant to species conservation and global change processes. We evaluate the effects of wildfire on habitat quality and selection by large mammals spanning three ...

Influence of lure choice and survey duration on scent stations for carnivore surveys

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2019
Noninvasive, camera‐based, scent station surveys have become a common approach to estimate population parameters for mammalian carnivores. Many carnivores are particularly sensitive to olfactory cues; and, as such, the quality and quantity of odor ...

Movement decisions reflect compromised statewide connectivity for mountain lions in California

Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, EarlyView.
Human‐induced habitat fragmentation threatens connectivity for populations of wide‐ranging species by compromising long‐distance dispersal. We evaluated movement‐based resource selection of dispersing mountain lions (Puma concolor) to identify specific landscape conditions influencing movement decisions and connectivity between populations across the ...

Global perspectives, local solutions: Improving human–predator coexistence through collaboration, meaningful experiences and cross‐cultural knowledge

People and Nature
Human–predator coexistence is a complex and dynamic relationship influenced by a variety of social–ecological factors. Recognising conflict as an inherent aspect of coexistence, rather than merely a problem to be solved, is crucial.

Comparing the Last Interglacial (MIS 5e) with the present interglacial period (MIS 1) using a multidimensional functional diversity analysis: The marine molluscs from Santa Maria Island (Azores Archipelago, central Atlantic) as a case study

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine fossil records hold outstanding importance for ecological, evolutionary and biogeographical studies. Santa Maria Island in the Azores Archipelago (central Atlantic) features a remarkable marine fossil record spanning from the Pliocene to recent times.

Analysis of dedicated revenue scale and diversity among U.S. state fish and wildlife agencies

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Most revenue for state fish and wildlife agencies originates from 3 sources: 1) hunting, fishing, and trapping licenses; 2) Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Grants; and 3) Federal Aid in Sportfish Restoration Grants. However, states also generate substantial revenue through 22 additional unique mechanisms, ranging from sales taxes to license plate ...

Tectonics, volcanism, landscape structure and human evolution in the African Rift [PDF]

, 2000
Tectonic movements and volcanism in the African Rift have usually been considered of relevance to human evolution only at very large geographical and chronological scales, principally in relation to longterm topographic and climatic variation at the ...
