The role of habitat in the persistence of fire ant populations. [PDF]
The association of the exotic fire ant, Solenopsis invicta with man-modified habitats has been amply demonstrated, but the fate of such populations if ecological succession proceeds has rarely been investigated.

We used automated behavioral response systems (ABRs) to assess invasive wild pig (Sus scrofa) behavioral response to four auditory playbacks: humans, coyote vocalizations (Canis latrans), pigs in distress, and barred owl (Strix varia) calls. Wild pigs had a significant flight response to human playbacks, but 68% of pigs did not flee.

Comparative evaluation of funnel, box, and camera traps for reptile and amphibian inventory
We used data from 5 herpetological inventories conducted in Florida to evaluate the relative efficacy of funnel, box, and motion‐triggered camera traps for detecting reptile and amphibian species along drift‐fence arrays. Our results suggest that a hybrid array design (funnel traps + central camera trap) is best suited for general herpetofaunal ...

An Eddy Covariance Mesonet For Measuring Greenhouse Gas Fluxes in Coastal South Carolina
Coastal ecosystems are vulnerable to climate change and have been identified as sources of uncertainty in the global carbon budget. Here we introduce a recently established mesonet of eddy covariance towers in South Carolina and describe the sensor ...

The singing phenology of Bachman's sparrow: implications for monitoring programs
We used automated recording units, weather data, and multiple logistic regression with generalized estimating equations to determine the annual singing period and influences on singing behavior of Bachman's sparrow in Texas, USA, surveying daily for 2 years.

Examining Longleaf Pine spectral properties to remotely map relict stands in Central North Carolina [PDF]
This thesis has been prepared as a manuscript for submission and potential publication in a peer-reviewed academic journal. This thesis investigates the unique spectral reflectance properties of 109 “montane” longleaf pine canopies (Pinus palustris Mill.)
