Conceptual Life History and Habitat Suitability Models for the Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus)

open access: yes, 2023
The greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) have experienced extensive population decline across their range in the western United States and Canada due to habitat degradation and loss largely associated with land use change, including the ...

Acoustic communication in the Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) an examination into vocal sacs, sound propagation, and signal directionality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The thesis is an inquiry into the acoustic communication of a very unusual avian species, the Greater Sage-Grouse, Centrocercus urophasianus. One of the most outstanding features of this animal's dynamic mating display is its use of paired air sacs that ...

Maladaptive nest‐site selection and reduced nest survival in female sage‐grouse following wildfire

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Increased wildfire frequency and associated replacement of sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) with invasive annual grasses contribute to declines of greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage‐grouse) populations across the Great Basin ...

Identifying climate‐change refugia for species management and conservation in the Pacific Northwest

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The impacts of climate change are already affecting many species and habitats, presenting challenges for species management and conservation. Protecting climate refugia—areas buffered from climate shifts where species can persist despite broader changes—has been proposed as a tool for managing species under climate change.

Using DNA from hairs left at depredated greater sage‐grouse nests to detect mammalian nest predators

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2018
Despite a multitude of studies on sage‐grouse (Centrocercus spp.), there is still sparse information on the predator communities that influence sage‐grouse productivity and how these predator communities may change when sagebrush habitats are altered by ...

Landscape features and seasonal habitat predict lek site selection and lek size of a Tympanuchus grouse

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The lek hotspot hypothesis predicts that leks will form in areas where males are more likely to encounter females, providing wildlife managers with a framework supporting the use of leks as the focus for prairie and shrubland grouse conservation and monitoring.

Comparison of methods for estimating wild turkey poult survival

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
Wild turkey poult survival is a challenging metric to measure in wild turkey reproduction, and interpreting this information can have significant implications for managers at the population scale. Flushing wild turkey broods and radio‐tagging poults produced similar estimates of poult survival over a 56‐day monitoring period post‐hatching. Both methods

Genetic structuring and within‐flock relatedness of eastern wild turkeys

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
We investigated the genetic structure and within‐flock relatedness of wild turkeys across sites in the southeastern United States. We found that the probability of within‐flock relatedness was lowest at a study site where spring harvest of males did not occur, and relatedness varied by sex and age relationships across study sites.

Use of LiDAR to examine habitat selection by incubating female wild turkeys in South Carolina

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
We evaluated how spatially explicit LiDAR‐derived estimates of forest structure and topographical features influenced selection by female eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) during the incubation period. Female wild turkeys selected for incubation recess locations in pine (Pinus spp.) forests with an average basal area of ~14m2/ha and
