Influence of environmental change, harvest exposure, and human disturbance on population trends of greater sage-grouse. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2021
Hunter harvest of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter "sage-grouse") has been regulated by wildlife agencies during most of the past century.

Mitigation Effectiveness for Improving Nesting Success of Greater Sage-Grouse Influenced by Energy Development [PDF]

Wildlife Biol, 2015
Sagebrush Artemisia spp. habitats being developed for oil and gas reserves are inhabited by sagebrush obligate species--including the greater sage-grouse Centrocercus urophasianus (sage-grouse) that is currently being considered for protection under the ...

Wyoming Sage-Grouse Working Groups: Lessons Learned [PDF]

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
The greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) has been the subject of multiple status reviews under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Wyoming accounts for approximately 38% of the range-wide population.

Experimental chronic noise is related to elevated fecal corticosteroid metabolites in lekking male greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus). [PDF]

PLoS One, 2012
There is increasing evidence that individuals in many species avoid areas exposed to chronic anthropogenic noise, but the impact of noise on those who remain in these habitats is unclear.

Isotopic analysis reveals landscape patterns in the diet of a subsidized predator, the common raven

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2021
Anthropogenic subsidies to native predators can have cascading effects on sensitive prey populations, but the spatial mechanisms behind these effects are often unknown.

Acute and lagged fitness consequences for a sagebrush obligate in a post mega‐wildfire landscape

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Species responses to disturbance influence their extinction risks. Greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) are bioindicators of sagebrush ecosystem health and the loss of sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) due to wildfire, can cause long‐term declines in

Changes in hunting season regulations (1870s-2019) reduce harvest exposure on greater and Gunnison sage-grouse.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Hunter harvest is a potential factor contributing to population declines of sage-grouse (Centrocercus spp.). As a result, wildlife agencies throughout western North America have set increasingly more conservative harvest regulations over the past 25 ...

Maladaptive nest‐site selection and reduced nest survival in female sage‐grouse following wildfire

Ecosphere, 2022
Increased wildfire frequency and associated replacement of sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) with invasive annual grasses contribute to declines of greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage‐grouse) populations across the Great Basin ...
