Ecovoltaic solar energy development can promote grassland bird communities
Our findings suggest that properly sited and developed ecovoltaic solar facilities in human altered landscapes can improve habitat for birds and other wildlife, but further research is needed to understand which species may benefit most from these novel ecosystems.

A global review of the conservation status of true quails (Families Odontophoridae and Phasianidae)
Understanding the conservation status of species is imperative to stem global declines. To better inform conservation, we summarized the global conservation status of New World (Family Odontophoridae) and Old World (Family Phasianidae) true quail species.

Tree cover limits occupancy of a declining game bird
Open forest ecosystems are considered one of the most imperiled ecosystems in North America and many associated avian species are experiencing population declines. Management at large and impactful scales is challenging on private lands due to fragmentation and resource limitations, but public lands are often larger in scale and offer opportunities for

Use of a thermal camera to aid in capturing northern bobwhite quail chicks
There is a paucity of information concerning northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) chick demography caused by a deficiency of efficient published capture techniques and permanent unique markers for identification. In order to facilitate chick research,

We show that Arctic and red fox space use significantly affects goose nest habitat selection and nest success in a low‐Arctic tundra ecosystem. However, the impact of fox predation depended on the location and timing of incubation of the nest, demonstrating the importance of incorporating time into the ‘landscape of fear’ concept.

Using passive acoustic monitoring, researchers in Nebraska found that perennial grasslands support greater species richness of grassland obligates and at‐risk birds than croplands throughout most of the migration and breeding season. Abstract Perennial grasses, such as switchgrass (Panicum virgatum), have emerged as a promising and reliable feedstock ...
