Stakeholder contemporary knowledge needs regarding the potential effects of tall structures on sage-grouse

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
The U.S. Energy Policy Act of 2005 required all state and federal agencies to grant utilities access permits to promote reliable, renewable energy production and transmission. Contemporary transmission relies largely on above-ground electric transmission

Effect of Seaweed Fucoidan Incorporated Into Batter on Shelf Life Extension of Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) Nugget During Refrigerated Storage

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
The fucoidan from Sargassum angustifolium incorporated directly in batter (0%, 1%, 2%, and 3% w/w; C, F1, F2, and F3, respectively) of silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) nuggets increased some physiochemical properties during the refrigerated storage.

Maximizing the detection probabilities of dusky grouse for population monitoring

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 4, July 2026.
Despite its status as a game species in the western USA, rigorous monitoring of dusky grouse Dendragapus obscurus populations is limited. Obtaining an adequate number of observations for effective population monitoring of dusky grouse is challenging due to difficult‐to‐reach montane habitats, cryptic behaviors, and limited personnel, time, and funds at

Dusky grouse seasonal resource selection in the Great Basin isolated mountain ranges of Nevada, USA

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 4, July 2026.
Dusky grouse Dendragapus obscurus are a montane forest grouse species with a paucity of information regarding their temporal and spatial resource use during critical times of high mortality and reproductive output. This lack of vital data may leave dusky grouse at risk of sub‐optimal management in many areas of their distribution, especially in the ...

Seasonal movements of greater sage‐grouse populations in Utah: Implications for species conservation

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2016
Greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage‐grouse) is considered an umbrella species for sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) landscapes in western North America. In 2015, the U.S.

Development of optimized methods for unbiased dusky grouse population monitoring using real and simulated data

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 4, July 2026.
Rigorous state‐wide monitoring programs are lacking for dusky grouse Dendragapus obscurus, a North American species of forest grouse with relatively low detectability that is found in coniferous and mountainous areas in the western United States and Canada.

Vitals rates and seasonal movements of two isolated greater sage-grouse populations in Utah's West Desert

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Declines in greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; hereafter, sage-grouse) populations in Utah over the last century parallel range-wide trends.

Abundance and occupancy trends of sooty grouse in western Oregon: determining best modeling practices by comparing observed and simulated data

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 4, July 2026.
Sooty grouse Dendragapus fuliginosus are large game birds that occupy montane forests in the Pacific Northwest, USA. These forests have been altered by human activities, which have been shown to have both positive and negative impacts on local populations.

Greater sage‐grouse dynamics are influenced by winter temperature rather than indices of grazing, drought, and breeding season weather in a northern Great Plains population

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
We evaluated the impacts of grazing, climatic variability, and vegetation productivity on the population dynamics of a northern Great Plains greater sage‐grouse population. We found winter temperature influenced annual population growth rates, but did not detect influences of drought, breeding season weather, vegetation productivity or short‐term ...

Microhabitat Selection by Greater Sage-Grouse Hens During Brood Rearing

Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017
Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) populations have declined throughout the western United States over the past century. Loss of large stands of sagebrush is a major factor leading to the decline of sage-grouse populations.
