Apex predators exploit advantageous snow conditions across hunting modes

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Advantageous snow conditions—in terms of snow depth and density—are among the most important features of the winter landscape for two apex predators, regardless of hunting strategy. In a warming climate, the knock‐on effects of a diminishing snowpack may reduce the hunting success of multiple large carnivore species.

Network Structure and the Efficiency Gains from Mergers: Evidence from U.S. Freight Railroads

The RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The trade‐off between market power and efficiency gains is central to antitrust analyses of mergers, but empirical evidence quantifying efficiencies remains limited. Using transaction‐level data from U.S. freight railroads (1985–2005), this article quantifies merger‐induced cost efficiencies, driven mainly by eliminating inter‐railroad ...

Thresholding species distribution models: Simple approaches for land‐use planning in multifunctional landscapes

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Species distribution models (SDMs) are often used to understand changes to species' distributions and their habitats under different land‐use scenarios, enabling decision makers to prioritize areas for management efforts and balance environmental conservation with socio‐economic demands on the landscape.

Using Periodic Matrix Models to Simulate the Effectiveness of Alternative Reintroduction Strategies for Lizards on a Seasonal Tropical Island

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Guam's lizard fauna has been devastated by the invasive brown treesnake, but recent advances in brown treesnake control have opened the possibility of reintroducing native lizards. We simulated different strategies for reintroducing lizards to Guam, comparing the timing and age‐structure of releases.
