Constructed value of information with iterative scoring and parametric uncertainty to identify management‐relevant research priorities for a declining raptor species

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Constructed value of information (CVoI) is an expert elicitation decision‐analytic tool used to prioritize sources of uncertainty based on their potential to improve decision outcomes if resolved. Despite increased application of CVoI, the robustness of CVoI prioritization of sources of uncertainty relative to differences in expert elicitation

Density dependence and habitat selection affect overwintering abundance of monarch butterflies at regional and site scales in California

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We analyzed annual overwintering counts in California to understand monarch population fluctuations. Climate and density‐dependent factors explain 64% of annual variability across groves, with density dependence being the primary driver. Within groves, tree characteristics and microclimate significantly influence monarch habitat selection, with ...
