Age and sex identification from wings of sage‐grouse

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2015
We redefine and clarify procedures to classify sex and age (juveniles, yearlings, adults, and breeding‐age) of greater (Centrocercus urophasianus) and Gunnison sage‐grouse (C. minimus) from wings.

Fire regime shift reveals 17th century socio‐ecological change in the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument, New Mexico

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Humans have influenced ecosystems for millennia, and social changes can have notable ecological effects. Recent human influence on ecosystems is exemplified by the collapse of fire regimes circa 1900 in the western United States due to increased grazing, fire suppression, and declining Indigenous fire use.

Response of greater sage-grouse to surface coal mining and habitat conservation in association with the mine

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage-grouse) is a sagebrushobligate species that has experienced species-wide declines in population density and distribution.

Effects of wildfire on the distribution of mammals and birds in a working shrub‐steppe landscape

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The intensity, frequency, and extent of wildfire have increased drastically in the sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecoregion within Washington, USA, over the last few decades. Wildfire on this landscape, already modified and fragmented by agriculture and other disturbances, may challenge the persistence of wildlife that depend on continuous ...

Temporal mismatch in space use by a sagebrush obligate species after large‐scale wildfire

Ecosphere, 2022
The increase in size and frequency of wildfires in sagebrush steppe ecosystems has significant impacts on sagebrush obligate species. We modeled seasonal habitat use by female greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) in the Trout Creek Mountains ...

Investigating the Preservative Effect of Edible Coating Based on Chitosan‐Gelatin Containing Satureja bachtiarica and Nepeta binaludensis Essential Oils Nanoemulsions on the Physicochemical, Microbial and Sensory Properties of Burger During Cold Storage

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
A chitosan–gelatin edible coating containing nanoemulsions of Satureja bachtiarica and Nepeta binaludensis essential oils was developed and applied to burgers during refrigerated storage. The active coating improved microbial stability and helped maintain the physicochemical and sensory quality of burgers, demonstrating its potential for extending ...

Inter-seasonal movements in tri-state greater sage-grouse: implications for state-centric conservation plans

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) designated greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) as a candidate species to receive protection under the Endangered Species Act in 2010.

Effects of oiling common raven nests on ravens and greater sage‐grouse in sagebrush ecosystems

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 7, September 2026.
We oiled and sham‐oiled raven nests across 7 sites in the Great Basin to measure the effects of egg‐oiling on co‐occurring populations of ravens and sage‐grouse. Oiling raven eggs ended embryonic development of oiled eggs, reduced raven densities, resulted in more than a doubling of nest‐survival probabilities of sage‐grouse nests, and spurred ...

Measuring the effectiveness of conservation: a novel framework to quantify the benefits of sage-grouse conservation policy and easements in Wyoming. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Increasing energy and housing demands are impacting wildlife populations throughout western North America. Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus), a species known for its sensitivity to landscape-scale disturbance, inhabits the same low ...

The performance of drones and artificial intelligence for monitoring sage‐grouse at leks

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 5, September 2026.
Accurately monitoring sage‐grouse populations is critical for conservation, yet traditional ground‐based visual surveys face challenges in scalability and consistency, prompting the exploration of innovative drone‐based methodologies enhanced by artificial intelligence.
