A spatially explicit modeling framework to guide management of subsidized avian predator densities
Ecosphere, 2023 Anthropogenic resource subsidization across western ecosystems has contributed to widespread increases in generalist avian predators, including common ravens (Corvus corax; hereafter, raven).

Wyoming Sage-Grouse Working Groups: Lessons Learned
Human-Wildlife Interactions, 2017 The greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) has been the subject of multiple status reviews under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). Wyoming accounts for approximately 38% of the range-wide population.

Evaluation of factors affecting greater prairie‐chicken nest and brood survival
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Greater prairie‐chickens Tympanuchus cupido pinnatus in the Flint Hills ecoregion select recently burned grasslands for brooding and nest in areas that have been unburned for 1–3 years, suggesting the need for a mosaic of burn patches. However, it is unknown how patch area, configuration, and proximity to edges within such mosaics affect reproductive ...

Temporal mismatch in space use by a sagebrush obligate species after large‐scale wildfire
Ecosphere, 2022 The increase in size and frequency of wildfires in sagebrush steppe ecosystems has significant impacts on sagebrush obligate species. We modeled seasonal habitat use by female greater sage‐grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) in the Trout Creek Mountains ...

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.The Threat Integration Model for Sagebrush (TIMS) combines multiple spatial decision support tools to provide a unified, actionable map of sagebrush ecosystem conditions across the western United States. TIMS improves upon existing tools by including multiple threats in the same map (invasive annual grass [IAG] and conifer encroachment), characterizing
