Probability of lek collapse is lower inside sage-grouse Core Areas: Effectiveness of conservation policy for a landscape species.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) occupy sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) habitats in 11 western states and 2 Canadian provinces. In September 2015, the U.S.

Greater sage‐grouse dynamics are influenced by winter temperature rather than indices of grazing, drought, and breeding season weather in a northern Great Plains population

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
We evaluated the impacts of grazing, climatic variability, and vegetation productivity on the population dynamics of a northern Great Plains greater sage‐grouse population. We found winter temperature influenced annual population growth rates, but did not detect influences of drought, breeding season weather, vegetation productivity or short‐term ...

Age and sex identification from wings of sage‐grouse

open access: yesWildlife 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.

The abundance of Greater Sage-Grouse as a proxy for the abundance of sagebrush-associated songbirds in Wyoming, USA

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology, 2020
Surrogate-species concepts are prevalent in animal conservation. Such strategies advocate for conservation by proxy, wherein one species is used to represent other taxa to obtain a conservation objective.

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

open access: yesHuman-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.

Leveraging Next‐Generation Tools for Genetic Assessment and Demographic Monitoring in Threatened and Elusive Humboldt Martens

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Conservation assessments of imperiled species require information on population structure, abundance, and connectivity which benefit from integrated demographic and genetic data. Humboldt martens (Martes caurina humboldtensis) are a federally threatened subspecies of Pacific marten (Martes caurina) whose conservation has been hindered by ...

Greater sage‐grouse nest survival in Northwestern Wyoming

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, 2017
ABSTRACTNest survival, along with female survival and chick survival, is the most important vital rates to population growth of greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage‐grouse). We used global positioning system and very high‐frequency transmitters on female sage‐grouse to identify 204 nests and monitor incubation on 5 sites in the Bighorn ...

The United States Magnetotelluric Array and the National Impedance Map

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract The United States Magnetotelluric Array (USMTArray) data set, collected in the years 2006–2024, consists of more than 1,700 long‐period magnetotelluric stations covering the entirety of the contiguous United States on a quasi‐regular 70 km grid.

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

open access: yesHuman-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.

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

open access: yesEcosphere, 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 ...
