Isotopic analysis reveals landscape patterns in the diet of a subsidized predator, the common raven
Anthropogenic subsidies to native predators can have cascading effects on sensitive prey populations, but the spatial mechanisms behind these effects are often unknown.

Maladaptive nest‐site selection and reduced nest survival in female sage‐grouse following wildfire
Increased wildfire frequency and associated replacement of sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) with invasive annual grasses contribute to declines of greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage‐grouse) populations across the Great Basin ...

Comparison of Conservation Policy Benefits for an Umbrella and Related Sagebrush-Obligate Species
Many conservation strategies promote the potential of multiple species benefitting from protection of large areas necessary for the continued viability of 1 species.

Hunter harvest is a potential factor contributing to population declines of sage-grouse (Centrocercus spp.). As a result, wildlife agencies throughout western North America have set increasingly more conservative harvest regulations over the past 25 ...

Spatial heterogeneity in response of male greater sage-grouse lek attendance to energy development. [PDF]
Landscape modification due to rapidly expanding energy development, in particular oil and gas, in the westernUSA, have prompted concerns over how such developments may impact wildlife.

Sensitivity to weather drives Great Basin mesic resources and Greater Sage-Grouse productivity
Anticipating and mitigating the effects climate change will have on wildlife populations requires an improved understanding of the ways in which those populations are currently adapted to climate and how they are affected by variation in weather ...

Acute and lagged fitness consequences for a sagebrush obligate in a post mega‐wildfire landscape
Species responses to disturbance influence their extinction risks. Greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) are bioindicators of sagebrush ecosystem health and the loss of sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) due to wildfire, can cause long‐term declines in

Ecology of greater sage-grouse populations inhabiting the northwestern Wyoming Basin
Range-wide population declines of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage-grouse) have been largely attributed to habitat loss and fragmentation. However, the specific conservation threats affecting the ecology of sage-grouse populations may
