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

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

Duck Nest Success in the Prairie Pothole Region

The 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.

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

Wildlife 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.

Automated Extraction of Surface Water Extent from Sentinel-1 Data

Remote 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

Journal 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).

Phenological Flexibility in Nesting Grassland Birds Over a Half Century Informs Timing of Management [PDF]

Global change biology.
Using > 170,000 nest records from 44 North American grassland bird species, we quantified how temperature, precipitation, and vegetation phenology shape early, peak, and late nesting across broad spatial gradients. Spatial predictions identify geographic variation in breeding phenology that can inform the timing of management actions under changing ...

Building the foundation for international conservation planning for breeding ducks across the U.S. and Canadian border.

PLoS ONE, 2015
We used publically available data on duck breeding distribution and recently compiled geospatial data on upland habitat and environmental conditions to develop a spatially explicit model of breeding duck populations across the entire Prairie Pothole ...
