TAXON, EarlyView.Abstract This study investigates species boundaries in the lichen genus Arctomia (Arctomiaceae, Ascomycota) using an integrative approach combining molecular phylogenetics, full Bayesian population delimitation, heuristic and model‐based species delimitation, and supervised machine learning applied to morphological data.

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Predation by pine martens Martes martes and red foxes Vulpes vulpes is an important factor influencing the population dynamics of capercaillie Tetrao urogallus. However, there is a knowledge gap regarding the relative effects of these mesopredators on the reproductive success of capercaillie. To better understand how various landscape factors influence

Selective sensing and transmission for multi-channel cognitive radio networks
EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking, 2011 In this article, we consider a continuous time Markov chain (CTMC) modeled multi-channel CR network, where there are multiple independent primary users and one slotted secondary user (SU) who can access multiple channels simultaneously.

Design considerations for breeding waterfowl surveys
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.This study evaluated how different survey designs affect the accuracy and precision of breeding waterfowl population estimates in Iowa's Prairie Pothole Region. Using aerial survey data from 2016–2018, we found that conducting at least 2 visits per season reduced bias in pair estimates, particularly for wood ducks and blue‐winged teal, while mallard ...

Abundance estimates of eastern black rails in southeastern Colorado
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.This study estimated eastern black rail (Laterallus jamaicensis jamaicensis) detection, occupancy, and abundance in southeastern Colorado. We found detection probability increased later in the season and later at night but decreased with ambient noise. Occupancy increased with residual vegetation height and detection of Virginia rail (Rallus limicola).
