Acute and lagged fitness consequences for a sagebrush obligate in a post mega‐wildfire landscape
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Species responses to disturbance influence their extinction risks. Greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) are bioindicators of sagebrush ecosystem health and the loss of sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) due to wildfire, can cause long‐term declines in

Temporal mismatch in space use by a sagebrush obligate species after large‐scale wildfire
Ecosphere, 2022 The increase in size and frequency of wildfires in sagebrush steppe ecosystems has significant impacts on sagebrush obligate species. We modeled seasonal habitat use by female greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) in the Trout Creek Mountains ...

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 Terrestrial arthropods are a critical component of sagebrush ecosystems and serve as a key food source for higher trophic levels, including many avian species of conservation concern.

Prioritizing seasonal habitats for comprehensive conservation of a partially migratory species
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019 For conservation reserves to protect habitat to support viable populations, they must be effective in protecting all vital requirements; yet, it is unclear the extent that conservationists need to prioritize seasonal habitats when delineating reserves ...

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 A community-level approach to identify important brood habitats of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) may prove useful in guiding management actions because it acknowledges that important habitat components are not ecologically independent ...

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2022 Water is a critical and limited resource, particularly in the arid West, but water availability is projected to decline even while demand increases due to growing human populations and increases in duration and severity of drought.

Age and sex identification from wings of sage‐grouse
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2015 We redefine and clarify procedures to classify sex and age (juveniles, yearlings, adults, and breeding‐age) of greater (Centrocercus urophasianus) and Gunnison sage‐grouse (C. minimus) from wings.

Impacts of coyote removal on space use by greater sage-grouse
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) are in decline across western North America. Identification of management strategies to enhance populations, such as predator management, may be needed to reduce further declines, but unintentional effects ...
