Greater sage‐grouse juvenile survival in Utah

Journal of Wildlife Management, 2014
ABSTRACTGreater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage‐grouse) adult hen and juvenile survival have been shown to have significant influence on population growth rates. However, assessing the sensitivity of population growth rates to variability in juvenile survival has proven difficult because of limited information concerning the potentially ...

Evaluation of the lek-count index for greater sage-grouse

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2004
Counts of birds attending leks traditionally have been used as an index to the population size of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) and, more recently, as a means to estimate population size. The relationship between this index and the actual population has not been studied.

Seasonal movements of greater sage‐grouse populations in Utah: Implications for species conservation

open access: yesWildlife 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.

Greater sage‐grouse response to bentonite mining

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 2019
ABSTRACTThe greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage‐grouse) has undergone range contraction and population decline because of anthropogenic land surface disturbances; yet, there is little information on the effects of mining on sage‐grouse populations.

Male greater sage‐grouse detectability on leks

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 2015
ABSTRACTIt is unlikely all male sage‐grouse are detected during lek counts, which could complicate the use of lek counts as an index to population abundance. Understanding factors that influence detection probabilities will allow managers to more accurately estimate the number of males present on leks. We fitted 410 males with global positioning system

Persistence of greater sage‐grouse in agricultural landscapes

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 2017
ABSTRACTLocal extirpations influence species’ range contractions and are often precursors of range‐wide extinction. Understanding extinction dynamics is important for devising effective management strategies to protect threatened and endangered species.
