New host records of chewing lice (Mallophaga) on birds in Florida 3 [PDF]
, 2005 Here, I report some new county and Florida host records as well as two new U.S. host records for avian lice. County records for avian lice are less significant than the host records themselves.

Factors affecting breeding status of wading birds in the Everglades. [PDF]
, 2000 This goals of this research and monitoring effort are to document nesting effort and roughly categorize success of nesting by wading birds in the central Everglades of Florida, and to investigate the causes of nonbreeding in a high proportion of the ...

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 8, November 2025.Oyster reef restoration has become increasingly crucial due to global population declines. Intertidal oyster reefs provide essential foraging and loafing (resting) grounds to estuarine fauna. To reduce plastic pollution from traditional materials, biodegradable restoration materials have been introduced and are shown to support oyster recruitment ...

Ecosphere, Volume 10, Issue 4, April 2019., 2019 Abstract Trends of environmental change are influencing the behavior of many species across the world, while highly mobile species are disproportionately impacted by climate change and human modification. Here, we investigate the mechanisms behind climate change effects on the reproductive traits of highly mobile, West Australian bird taxa, the forest ...

Near real‐time monitoring of wading birds using uncrewed aircraft systems and computer vision
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 255-265, June 2025.Developments in aerial survey methods and computer vision models allow for wildlife population monitoring over large areas. A key limitation to these approaches for active monitoring is the slow process of converting imagery into data. Near real‐time monitoring is crucial for management decisions and ecological forecasting.

Accounting for imperfect detection of groups and individuals when estimating abundance
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 7, Issue 18, Page 7304-7310, September 2017., 2017 We introduce an abundance estimator for grouped animals when detection of groups is imperfect and group size may be under‐counted. Using a second observation of group size, this estimator significantly reduces bias and increases coverage, relative to a mark‐recapture‐distance‐sampling model. Abstract If animals are independently detected during surveys,

Upwash exploitation and downwash avoidance by flap phasing in ibis formation flight [PDF]
, 2014 Many species travel in highly organized groups. The most quoted function of these configurations is to reduce energy expenditure and enhance locomotor performance of individuals in the assemblage.
