Integrating herbicide application and seeding techniques to restore native plant diversity in crested wheatgrass‐dominated rangelands

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Restoring native plant diversity in crested wheatgrass (Agropyron cristatum)‐dominated rangelands is a persistent challenge in ecological restoration across western North America. Dense, long‐lived stands of this exotic grass suppress native seedling recruitment, hinder habitat restoration, and reduce ecosystem resilience ...

Marine mammal's directivity in geoacoustic inversion scheme [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
International audienceGervaise & al 2011 and Barazzutti & al 2013 described the general structure of a scheme to estimate the nature of superficial sediment in shallow waters using marine mammal's whistles and a single receiver.

Free rein: Are feral horses competing with native ungulates in British Columbia?

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 3, April 2026.
We investigated little‐studied feral horses in west‐central British Columbia, Canada, as a potential competitor for native moose and mule deer. We did not find strong evidence that feral horses exclude moose or deer from habitat or resources at a large landscape scale or smaller spatiotemporal patch scale.

Nonnative Ungulate Impacts on Greater Sage-grouse Late Brood-rearing Habitat in the Great Basin, USA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Domestic livestock grazing is the dominant land use on much of the current range inhabited by greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage-grouse) in the western United States.

Changes in Spatial Distribution and Abundance Together Determine Potential for Population Persistence for Greater Sage‐Grouse

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Population ecologists often focus on changes in the distribution and abundance of wildlife species, which are useful for trend analyses and status assessments. However, rarely are these responses evaluated simultaneously for a single species, despite their unique contributions to fully assess a species' viability.

Is Diet Selection by Greater Sage-Grouse Influenced by Biomass Availability or Toxins? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Foraging herbivores must meet nutritional requirements by not only finding enough plant biomass to consume, but also finding plants with high protein content and low concentrations of potentially toxic plant secondary metabolites (PSMs).

Mapping sage‐grouse fence‐collision risk: Spatially explicit models for targeting conservation implementation

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2013
Recent research suggested greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage‐grouse) fence collision may be widespread, and fence‐marking methods have been developed for reducing prairie‐grouse collision in sagebrush‐steppe habitats. However,

Is Habitat Use by Greater Sage-Grouse Proportional to Availability of Plant Morphotypes? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Greater Sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage-grouse) select sagebrush plants for food that are high in protein. However, sagebrush produce toxins called monoterpenes that can inhibit enzymatic reactions and interrupt cellular processes

Seasonal regulation of melanogenesis in ptarmigan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Ptarmigan are one of the few animals, and only bird species, to undergo seasonal colour change. Every year they moult between a white winter morph and brown summer and autumn morphs and back again.
