Adult sage‐grouse numbers rise following raven removal or an increase in precipitation

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2017
Weather and lethal control of common ravens (Corvus corax; hereafter, ravens) can affect the nesting success of greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus), but implications of these effects in terms of the subsequent size of the breeding population ...

Alternative Future Vegetation Pathways Reveal Potential Transformations of Western US Ecosystems

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.
We used climate‐analog impact models (AIMs) to project changes in vegetation across the western United States under a mid‐21st century climate scenario, characterize ecological transformation vulnerability based on projection divergence, and demonstrate how AIMs can inform decision‐making.

Impacts of coyote removal on space use by greater sage-grouse

open access: yesHuman-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) are in decline across western North America. Identification of management strategies to enhance populations, such as predator management, may be needed to reduce further declines, but unintentional effects ...

Home Range and Movements of Greater Sage-grouse in its Southern-most Distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In Utah Greater sage-grouse (sage-grouse) habitat has been reduced to 50% of what is considered historical availability, due to habitat degradation and loss. We conducted a small study to determine the home range size, space use, and movement patterns of

Supporting dryland restoration success with applied ecological forecasting of seeding outcomes

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Introduction Ecological restoration is increasingly used to sustain biodiversity and ecosystem services. In drylands of the western United States (US), post‐disturbance restoration often involves seeding treatments to promote the recovery of native plant communities. Spatial and temporal variability in environmental conditions influences plant
