Space Use and Movements During Egg Laying Associated With Nest Fate and Female Survival in Eastern Wild Turkeys. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe assessed behaviors of female wild turkeys during the laying period and evaluated impacts of those behaviors on nest success and female survival. We found that increased movements during laying resulted in a decreased probability of nest success but an increased probability of female survival during incubation.

Microhabitat Conditions in Wyoming's Sage-Grouse Core Areas: Effects on Nest Site Selection and Success. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The purpose of our study was to identify microhabitat characteristics of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) nest site selection and survival to determine the quality of sage-grouse habitat in 5 regions of central and southwest Wyoming ...

Sensitivity to weather drives Great Basin mesic resources and Greater Sage-Grouse productivity
Ecological Indicators, 2022 Anticipating and mitigating the effects climate change will have on wildlife populations requires an improved understanding of the ways in which those populations are currently adapted to climate and how they are affected by variation in weather ...

A mobile tool for capturing greater sage‐grouse
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2018 Capturing greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) using standard approaches can be challenging and inefficient, particularly in areas with relatively small populations and patchy habitat.

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 In Utah, greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage-grouse) range has been reduced to 50% of what is considered historical availability due to habitat degradation and loss. In an effort to improve sage-grouse habitat in southern Utah,

Greater sage‐grouse use of mechanical conifer reduction treatments in northwest utah
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2017 A potential consequence of climate change, altered fire regimes, and a legacy of resource exploitation in western North America is increased displacement of desirable sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) communities by invasive plant species.

Ecology of greater sage-grouse populations inhabiting the northwestern Wyoming Basin
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Range-wide population declines of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage-grouse) have been largely attributed to habitat loss and fragmentation. However, the specific conservation threats affecting the ecology of sage-grouse populations may

Seasonal movements of greater sage‐grouse populations in Utah: Implications for species conservation
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2016 Greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage‐grouse) is considered an umbrella species for sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) landscapes in western North America. In 2015, the U.S.
