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.

Carbon and water dynamics of Old World bluestem in the U.S. Southern Great Plains
Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Forage production in the Southern Great Plains of the United States relies heavily on Old World bluestem (OWB, Bothriochloa spp.). This study analyzed 4 years (2021–2024) of continuous eddy covariance measurements in a managed OWB pasture in central Oklahoma, spanning both drought and wet periods.

Greater sage‐grouse nest survival in Northwestern Wyoming
The 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 ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.In rural areas, maintaining spaces between houses >500 m will likely facilitate ungulate movement. To fully conserve functional habitat, such as unimpeded habitat use along migration corridors, maintaining spaces approximately >2.5 km between houses will likely be necessary. Abstract Wildlife often lose access to habitat due to housing development. The

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 ...

Survival of juvenile greater sage‐grouse in Wyoming
Wildlife BiologyAn understanding of vital rate contributions to population growth is necessary for species of conservation concern, such as greater sage‐grouse Centrocercus urophasianus . Sage‐grouse demographic rates are generally well described; however, a notable exception is juvenile survival during the ...

Sagebrush, Greater Sage-Grouse, and the Occurrence and Importance of Forbs
Western North American Naturalist, 2016 Big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata Nutt.) ecosystems provide habitat for sagebrush-obligate wildlife species such as the Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus). The understory of big sagebrush plant communities is composed of grasses and forbs that are important sources of cover and food for wildlife.
