Evaluation of fall‐seeded cover crops for grassland nesting waterfowl in eastern South Dakota

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView., 2023
Cover crops are experiencing a revival among Midwestern farmers, and we assessed their attractiveness and safety for nesting ducks in South Dakota. Nest success was markedly lower in cover crops than in perennial cover during both years of our study, including 2019 which was a best‐case scenario for cover crops, with extremely wet conditions delaying ...

Long-term multidecadal data from a prairie-pothole wetland complex reveal controls on aquatic-macroinvertebrate communities

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Interactions between climate and hydrogeologic settings contribute to the hydrologic and chemical variability among depressional wetlands, which influences their aquatic communities.

Impact of model structure on the accuracy of hydrological modeling of a Canadian Prairie watershed

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology: Regional Studies, 2019
Study region: Prairie Pothole Region of Canada. Study focus: The Prairie region spans across approximately 870,000 km2 of the Great Plains region of Canada (80%) and the United States (20%).

Space–Time Variability of Summer Hydroclimate in the U.S. Prairie Pothole Region [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Interactions, 2022
Abstract The Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) experiences considerable space–time variability in temperature and precipitation, and this variability is expected to increase. The PPR is sensitive to this variability—it plays a large role in the water availability of the region.

Assessment of repeat‐visit surveys as a viable method for estimating brood abundance at the 10.4‐km2 scale

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2018
Regional estimates of duck brood abundance could help conservation managers assess landscape productivity and thereby improve spatially explicit allocation of limited conservation funds in the Prairie Pothole Region.

Duck Nest Success in the Prairie Pothole Region

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, 1988
We estimated nest success of mallard (Anas platyrhynchos), gadwall (A. strepera), blue-winged teal (A. discors), northern shoveler (A. clypeata), and northern pintail (A. acuta) for 5 regions in North Dakota, South Dakota, and Minnesota, for 1-3 periods between 1966 and 1984, and for 8 habitat classes.

Automated Extraction of Surface Water Extent from Sentinel-1 Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Accurately quantifying surface water extent in wetlands is critical to understanding their role in ecosystem processes. However, current regional- to global-scale surface water products lack the spatial or temporal resolution necessary to characterize ...

Wetland microhabitats support distinct communities of aquatic macroinvertebrates

open access: yesJournal of Freshwater Ecology, 2018
The drivers of aquatic macroinvertebrate distribution in Prairie Pothole Region wetlands are not as well understood as in other aquatic ecosystems (e.g. rivers or lakes).
