Mapping oil and gas development potential in the US Intermountain West and estimating impacts to species. [PDF]
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.

Reversing tree expansion in sagebrush steppe yields population‐level benefit for imperiled grouse
Woody plant expansion into shrub and grasslands is a global and vexing ecological problem. In the Great Basin of North America, the expansion of pinyon–juniper (Pinus spp.–Juniperus spp.) woodlands is threatening the sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) biome. The

Annual predictions were stratified by regulation history and sage-grouse Management Zone (MZ). Light gray indicates human harvest occurred but no harvest exposure effect was detected, medium gray indicates that a harvest exposure variable was influential

Comparison of Conservation Policy Benefits for an Umbrella and Related Sagebrush-Obligate Species
Many conservation strategies promote the potential of multiple species benefitting from protection of large areas necessary for the continued viability of 1 species.

Seasonal movements of greater sage‐grouse populations in Utah: Implications for species conservation
Greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage‐grouse) is considered an umbrella species for sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) landscapes in western North America. In 2015, the U.S.

A generalized integrated population model to estimate greater sage‐grouse population dynamics
For species of conservation concern, assessing population dynamics consistently across different populations is of paramount importance to effective conservation and restoration planning.

Historical impacts from oil and gas development to greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) habitat are well-documented in some areas of Wyoming, in particular within natural gas development fields, such as the Powder River Basin and JonahPinedale.

Is scuba sampling a relevant method to study microhabitat in lakes? Examples and comparisons for three European species [PDF]
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).
