Movements of female Sage Grouse Centrocercus urophasianus during incubation recess [PDF]

open access: yesIbis, 2018
We combined GPS data‐loggers, VHF transmitters and DVR video‐monitoring to measure fine‐scale movement patterns during daily incubation recesses by female Sage Grouse Centrocercus urophasianus, a species with uniparental incubation that has experienced widespread population decline and distributional contraction.

A targeted annual warning system developed for the conservation of a sagebrush indicator species

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
A fundamental goal of population ecologists is to identify drivers responsible for temporal variation in abundance. Understanding whether variation is associated with environmental stochasticity or anthropogenic disturbances, which are more amenable to ...

Territoriality and non-random mating in sage grouse, Centrocercus urophasianus

open access: yesAnimal Behaviour Monographs, 1973
Section I. Previous work has indicated that sage grouse Centrocercus wophasianus practice extreme polygyny (Simon 1940; Scott 1942; Patterson 1952; Lumsden 1968). The behavioural interactions that regulate this mating system have remained unclear, as the males' behaviour suggests both territoriality and dominance hierarchy. Section II.

Performing statistical population reconstruction using Program PopRecon 2.0

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2017
Statistical population reconstruction develops an integrated likelihood model that incorporates age‐at‐harvest composition, harvest totals, hunter effort, and auxiliary data on survival, harvest, or abundance to model demographics of harvested ...

Participatory Research in Sage-grouse Local Working Groups: Case Studies from Utah

open access: yesHuman-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Across the range of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage-grouse), collaborative groups focused on local-scale sage-grouse management, known as local working groups (LWGs), have been a core component of state-level efforts toward ...

Greater sage‐grouse and fences: Does marking reduce collisions?

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2012
Collision with infrastructure such as fences is widespread and common for many species of grouse. Greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) fence‐collision has been documented and fence‐marking methods have been recommended for mitigating prairie ...
