Isotopic analysis reveals landscape patterns in the diet of a subsidized predator, the common raven
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2021 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
Ecosphere, 2022 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
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2020 Many conservation strategies promote the potential of multiple species benefitting from protection of large areas necessary for the continued viability of 1 species.

Sensitivity to weather drives Great Basin mesic resources and Greater Sage-Grouse productivity
Ecological Indicators, 2022 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
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 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
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 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

Greater sage‐grouse use of mechanical conifer reduction treatments in northwest utah
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2017 A potential consequence of climate change, altered fire regimes, and a legacy of resource exploitation in western North America is increased displacement of desirable sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) communities by invasive plant species.

Declining populations of greater sage-grouse: where and why
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 Scientists have been predicting the extinction of greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) since 1916, and sage-grouse populations have declined relentlessly during the last century despite attempts to reverse the decline. In this review paper, we

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2013 The greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage‐grouse), a candidate species for listing under the Endangered Species Act, has experienced population declines across its range in the sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) steppe ecosystems of ...
