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

open access: yesHuman-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.

Phenology largely explains taller grass at successful nests in greater sage‐grouse [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2018
Much interest lies in the identification of manageable habitat variables that affect key vital rates for species of concern. For ground‐nesting birds, vegetation surrounding the nest may play an important role in mediating nest success by providing ...

Impact of sagebrush nutrients and monoterpenes on greater sage-grouse vital rates

open access: greenHuman-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage-grouse) depend on sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) to complete its annual life cycle. The winter diet for sage-grouse consists almost entirely of sagebrush leaves, and individual birds may gain weight while ...

Predator‐specific mortality of sage‐grouse nests based on predator DNA on eggshells [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Greater sage‐grouse (hereafter sage‐grouse; Centrocercus urophasianus) populations have declined across their range. Increased nest predation as a result of anthropogenic land use is one mechanism proposed to explain these declines.

Mitigation effectiveness for improving nesting success of greater sage-grouse influenced by energy development. [PDF]

open access: yesWildlife 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 ...

Is Habitat Use by Greater Sage-Grouse Proportional to Availability of Plant Morphotypes? [PDF]

open access: green, 2015
Greater Sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage-grouse) select sagebrush plants for food that are high in protein. However, sagebrush produce toxins called monoterpenes that can inhibit enzymatic reactions and interrupt cellular processes

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

open access: yesPLoS 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

open access: yesEcological 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.
