Factors influencing wintering turfgrass field use in Atlantic brant

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Atlantic brant Branta bernicla hrota increasingly use turfgrass fields, such as baseball fields and golf courses, throughout their wintering range. Most studies have focused on their primary food source, submerged aquatic vegetation, while studies of other goose species worldwide have examined field use in different contexts, including agricultural ...

Space and resource use by American crow Corvus brachyrhynchos in an area endemic for chronic wasting disease

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
American crow Corvus brachyrhynchos is a common species throughout North America. Crows play a role in the ecology of multiple diseases and a single laboratory experiment has shown the potential for crows to pass infectious prions, such as those associated with chronic wasting disease (CWD), in their feces after being force‐fed with infected material ...

Wild Pigs (Sus scrofa) Stand Their Ground: Investigating Flight Response, or Lack Thereof, to Perceived Predation Risk 野猪坚守原地:探究其面对感知捕食风险时的逃逸反应 (或无逃逸行为)

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
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.

The status quo is imperiled: Acknowledging the issue of range‐shifting wildlife species

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Rapid climate and land‐use change are reshaping wildlife distributions, forcing managers to confront difficult decisions that challenge the traditional “status quo” approach. Range contractions of snow‐dependent species such as the snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus; left photo) may increasingly require practitioners to recognize and plan for unavoidable ...

Design and performance of a capacitor‐based burn‐through monitor for high‐power X‐ray beams at XFEL facilities

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
We present the results of testing 92 prototypes of a capacitor‐based burn‐through monitor at the LCLS XCS and XPP endstations. We quantify the beam energy density thresholds required to induce a detectable high‐voltage electrical short prior to complete burn‐through and demonstrate the reliability of this scalable, low‐cost solution for machine and ...
