Interannual dynamic resource selection patterns of the northern bobwhite in a region with poor edaphic conditions

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Understanding an organism's shifting resource needs throughout its life cycle is crucial for developing effective conservation strategies. Northern bobwhite Colinus virginianus populations have been declining for nearly a century due largely to habitat loss/degradation.

Quantification of human‐caused mortality in an imperiled turtle

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
For many threatened and endangered species, the importance of human‐caused mortality relative to other sources has not been quantified, making it difficult to assess the effectiveness of mortality‐reduction strategies. We used radio telemetry data, pooled across studies at protected sites in the US states of Illinois and Wisconsin, to estimate natural ...

Assessing radio transmitter weight effect and evaluation of northern bobwhite chick survival in coastal North Carolina

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Abstract Studies on the earliest life stages are essential to our ecological understanding of avian demography; however, monitoring technologies that allow tracking of small birds are still limited in a variety of ways. One critical limitation, until recently, has been the development of methods for attaching transmitters to young birds with precocial ...

Choose, Compose, Contemplate: Semantic Theorizing in Management Research

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract By analysing life stories through a reflexive semantic theorizing process, this article introduces an alternative to many conventional coding‐based qualitative analysis techniques. Rather than relying on coding techniques that often strip narrative data of its context and nuance, following the proposed approach helps preserve the richness and ...
