Phytochemistry Predicts Habitat Selection by an Avian Herbivore at Multiple Spatial Scales [PDF]
, 2013 Animal habitat selection is a process that functions at multiple, hierarchically structured spatial scales. Thus multi-scale analyses should be the basis for inferences about factors driving the habitat selection process.

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 ...

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 ...

Greater sage‐grouse population trends across Wyoming
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 2017 ABSTRACTThe scale at which analyses are performed can have an effect on model results and often one scale does not accurately describe the ecological phenomena of interest (e.g., population trends) for wide‐ranging species: yet, most ecological studies are performed at a single, arbitrary scale.

Husbandry of wild-caught greater sage-grouse
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2005 This study reports the first successful husbandry and breeding in captivity of wild-caught greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus). In October 2003, 21 hatch-year greater sage-grouse were trapped in northwestern Nevada and transported to Fort Collins, Colorado.

A Decision Support Tool Using an Open-Source Methodology for Identifying Woody Encroachment and Juniper Species Vulnerability in the Chickasaw Nation, Oklahoma, USA. [PDF]
Ecol EvolFirst American peoples have relied on cultural burning to manage their lands and sustain healthy ecosystems, but modern agricultural practices and fire suppression have led to widespread juniper tree infestation in areas like Oklahoma. In response, the Chickasaw Nation developed an open‐source methodology, model and resulting decision‐support tool to ...

Male greater sage‐grouse movements among leks
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 2017 ABSTRACTMovements among leks by breeding birds (i.e., interlek movements) could affect the population's genetic flow, complicate use of lek counts as a population index, and indicate a change in breeding behavior following a disturbance. We used a Bayesian multi‐state mark‐recapture model to assess the daily probability of male greater sage‐grouse ...
