Comparison of in‐person and remote camera lek surveys for prairie grouse (Tympanuchus spp.)
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2023 In‐person lek count surveys are commonly used for estimating population size and trends for prairie grouse. However, the emergence of noninvasive camera trap survey methods holds promise for more cost‐effective and precise estimates of lekking species ...

Wildlife Biology, 2023 The population size of capercaille Tetrao urogallus in Scotland was estimated from annual counts of males at 151 known spring lek sites and 45 counts of males, females and their broods in August during the period 2010–2020, combined with published survival estimates.

Local and population-level responses of Greater sage-grouse to oil and gas development and climatic variation in Wyoming [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background Spatial scale is important when studying ecological processes. The Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) is a large sexually dimorphic tetraonid that is endemic to the sagebrush biome of western North America.

Assessment of lesser prairie‐chicken translocation through survival and lek surveys
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2023 Translocation is a management tool used to restore or augment wildlife populations, but outcomes of translocations are often poorly documented and can have varying levels of success for improving wildlife population declines.

The average number of critical rank-one approximations to a tensor [PDF]
, 2014 Motivated by the many potential applications of low-rank multi-way tensor approximations, we set out to count the rank-one tensors that are critical points of the distance function to a general tensor v.

Plethysm and lattice point counting [PDF]
, 2015 We apply lattice point counting methods to compute the multiplicities in the plethysm of $GL(n)$. Our approach gives insight into the asymptotic growth of the plethysm and makes the problem amenable to computer algebra. We prove an old conjecture of Howe

Mapping oil and gas development potential in the US Intermountain West and estimating impacts to species. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BACKGROUND:Many studies have quantified the indirect effect of hydrocarbon-based economies on climate change and biodiversity, concluding that a significant proportion of species will be threatened with extinction.

Is scuba sampling a relevant method to study microhabitat in lakes? Examples and comparisons for three European species [PDF]
, 2001 We compared fish microhabitat use patterns in the littoral zone of a lake using a new direct method (i.e. Point Abundance Sampling by Scuba, PASS) and the widely used Point Abundance Sampling by Electrofishing technique (PASE).

Altering an extended phenotype reduces intraspecific male aggression and can maintain diversity in cichlid fish [PDF]
, 2013 Reduced male aggression towards different phenotypes generating negative frequency-dependent intrasexual selection has been suggested as a mechanism to facilitate the invasion and maintenance of novel phenotypes in a population.
