Evaluating density-weighted connectivity of black bears (Ursus americanus) in Glacier National Park with spatial capture–recapture models [PDF]

Movement Ecology
Background Improved understanding of wildlife population connectivity among protected area networks can support effective planning for the persistence of wildlife populations in the face of land use and climate change.

Wolverines use spatial memory to plan efficient routes through rugged terrain [PDF]

Movement Ecology
Background To navigate, animals balance nearby perceptual cues, random search, and memory. Isolating the role of memory, however, remains difficult. Methods Here, we use a mechanistic movement model to do so, simulating animals responding solely to local

Acoustic Emissions from Grey Glacier, Chilean Patagonia: dataset of infrasound measurements [PDF]

Scientific Data
Calving is a critical process contributing to ice mass loss in tidewater and lake-terminating glaciers, with significant implications for freshwater input, glacier dynamics, and climate change. Infrasound emissions generated by calving events represent a

Vegetation Succession Patterns at Sperry Glacier’s Foreland, Glacier National Park, MT, USA

Land
Plant colonization patterns on deglaciated terrain give insight into the factors influencing alpine ecosystem development. Our objectives were to use a chronosequence, extending from the Little Ice Age (~1850) terminal moraine to the present glacier ...

Bighorn sheep associations: understanding tradeoffs of sociality and implications for disease transmission [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Sociality directly influences mating success, survival rates, and disease, but ultimately likely evolved for its fitness benefits in a challenging environment.

Impacts of tidewater glacier advance on iceberg habitat

Annals of Glaciology, 2023
Icebergs in proglacial fjords serve as pupping, resting and molting habitat for some of the largest seasonal aggregations of harbor seals (Phoca vitulina richardii) in Alaska.

Scrutinise the variations of glaciers and their climatic attributions in the Sanjiangyuan National Park during 1969–2018

Advances in Climate Change Research, 2022
Since 2020, the first national park of China, the Sanjiangyuan National Park (Park) has been put into operation in China. This Park is one of the most vulnerable regions to the rapid climate change in the Tibetan Plateau.
