The effectiveness and cost efficiency of different predator exclosure designs to increase piping plover ( Charadrius melodus ) nest success and fledging rate in Alberta, Canada

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2023
An estimated 30% of the North American piping plover (Charadrius melodus) breeding population occurs in Canada, where it is Endangered. Predator exclosures are a common management tool across the species' range to increase nest success.

Viability of piping plover Charadrius melodus metapopulations

open access: yesBiological Conservation, 2000
The metapopulation viability analysis package, vortex, was used to examine viability and recovery objectives for piping plovers Charadrius melodus, an endangered shorebird that breeds in three distinct regions of North America. Baseline models indicate that while Atlantic Coast populations, under current management practices, are at little risk of near-

Long-distance dispersal is asymmetrical with respect to age, sex and breeding latitude in a long-lived monogamous bird. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Anim Ecol
In this study, we constructed joint live encounter–dead recovery models under a Bayesian multistate framework to quantify long‐distance dispersal between barnacle goose subpopulations, using long‐term mark–recapture data. We demonstrate the existence of strong male‐biased unidirectional natal dispersal, resulting from low migratory connectivity and ...

Integrating Bayesian Networks to Forecast Sea‐Level Rise Impacts on Barrier Island Characteristics and Habitat Availability

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2022
Evaluation of sea‐level rise (SLR) impacts on coastal landforms and habitats is a persistent need for informing coastal planning and management, including policy decisions, particularly those that balance human interests and habitat protection throughout
