Piping plover chick ecology following landscape‐level disturbance

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 87, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
The study of all life stages following substantial landscape disturbing events, such as Hurricane Sandy, is useful to understand how to manage for population persistence. Plover chick habitat selection is affected by vegetation, slope, elevation and density. Maintaining direct access to relatively flat, moist habitats with low vegetation density around

Why do sea turtle nests fail? Modeling clutch loss across the southeastern United States

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 13, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Understanding the relative influence of environmental conditions and disturbance types on species' nest success is imperative to our estimation of current and future population trajectories of vulnerable species, especially ectotherms. The reproductive output of oviparous species is highly dependent on the location of a nest in terms of the ...

High Ammonia and Low pH in the Urine of the Ghost Crab, Ocypode quadrata

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1994
Nitrogen excreted into the urine (100 mM were found in the urine of laboratory-held Ocypode quadrata, suggesting that this notion might not be applicable to all crustaceans. To address this issue, hemolymph and urine were removed from freshly captured O. quadrata and analyzed for nitrogenous catabolites and major ions. Hemolymph composition was similar
