Integrating fecal DNA and telemetry to estimate wildlife densities in anthropogenic landscapes

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Density estimation is central to wildlife management efforts but can be challenging in anthropogenic landscapes due to small parcel sizes, access restrictions, and limited green space. We evaluated (a) the use of a plot‐based spatial capture‐recapture sampling design to estimate deer density in developed landscapes and (b) if integrating telemetry data

With a Great Story Comes Great Responsibility: Role of Narrative in Leadership Development

New Directions for Student Leadership, Volume 2025, Issue 185, Page 81-87, Spring 2025.
ABSTRACT Comic books reside uniquely within American culture. Historians have contended comics are more than just sequential artwork mixed with engaging stories, but rather, a framework by which the generations make sense of who they are. These stories are a reflection of cultural conscience; a lens through which we can view the world and a mirror ...

Mark-recapture with tag loss

, 2005
Mark-recapture studies are used to estimate population parameters such as abundance, survival and recruitment. Briefly, animals are captured, marked with an individually identifiable tag and released. First capture provides information about abundance. Subsequent recaptures provided survival information about the individual.

A multi‐trait evaluation of patterns and fitness consequences of breeding phenology plasticity with nocturnal warming and food restriction in a lizard

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Faced with climate warming, ectothermic species shift their breeding phenology, which is in part attributed to an acceleration of gestation or incubation in warmer environments.

A comparison of linear transect and capture recapture methods results in Iranian Jerboa population density and abundance estimation in Mirabad plains, Shahreza

یافته‌های نوین در علوم زیستی, 2019
During a period from spring 2008 till fall 2010, Iranian Jerboa population abundance was estimated using distance (linear transect) and capture-recapture methods in the Mirabad plains near Shahreza city in Isfahan Province.

Climate stability drives multidimensional nestedness of amphibian assemblages in a Chinese sky island system

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The nested subset pattern (nestedness) has been widely used to explain species distributions in island and fragmented systems. Mountain sky islands serve as critical natural laboratories for understanding the evolutionary consequences of geographic isolation and climate
