Widespread spring discharge drives major water–salt–heat fluxes in salt marshes
Abstract The occurrence, spatial distribution, and flux significance of submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) through preferential pathways in low‐permeability salt marshes remain poorly understood. Using thermal infrared imaging and in situ measurements, we mapped 983 saline springs in winter and 413 in summer across six tidal creeks on the muddy ...

Abstract Different aspects of ecological systems, biotic or abiotic, often fluctuate in coordinated patterns over space and time. Such high concordance between ecological processes is often referred to as ecological synchrony. Human activities, including and beyond climate change, have the potential to alter ecological synchrony by disrupting or ...

Monitoring GPS‐collared moose by ground versus drone approaches: efficiency and disturbance effects
Efficient wildlife management requires precise monitoring methods, for example to estimate population density, reproductive success, and survival. Here, we compared the efficiency of drone (equipped with a RGB camera) and ground approaches to detect and observe GPS‐collared female moose Alces alces and their calves. We also quantified how drone (n = 42)

One of the most difficult challenges for wildlife managers is reliably estimating wildlife populations. Camera traps combined with spatial capture–recapture (SCR) models are a popular tool for population estimation. They have limitations, however, including long data processing times.

Resource managers require accurate estimates of large herbivore abundance and demography to maintain ecological integrity. Common methods to count these species, including observations from low altitude helicopter flights, may conflict with other protected area management objectives and struggle to produce precise estimates for more cryptic species. To

Background: Loa loa – a filarial pathogen causing loiasis –is transmitted by deer fly species Chrysops dimidiata and C. silacea. There are no established control tools available to reduce loiasis transmission in endemic regions.

Roe deer is a species that hides their neonates as an anti‐predator strategy. This may prove efficient against mammalian predators, such as the red fox; however, it might be an ecological trap as large numbers of fawns are killed by tractors with harvesters each year during grass harvest.

Effect of Wildlife Highway Warning Reflectors on Deer-Vehicle Accident; HR-210, December 1984 [PDF]
he number of deer-vehicle accidents in Iowa and around the country has steadily increased during the past 30 years. This i s basically due to: ( 1 ) increased volume of traffic; 12) an expanding network of hard surface roads, especially 4 lane ...
