Alternative Future Vegetation Pathways Reveal Potential Transformations of Western US Ecosystems
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 3, March 2026.We used climate‐analog impact models (AIMs) to project changes in vegetation across the western United States under a mid‐21st century climate scenario, characterize ecological transformation vulnerability based on projection divergence, and demonstrate how AIMs can inform decision‐making.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.We assessed behaviors of female wild turkeys during the laying period and evaluated impacts of those behaviors on nest success and female survival. We found that increased movements during laying resulted in a decreased probability of nest success but an increased probability of female survival during incubation.
