Field research guided by citizen science and monitoring data reveal a novel alpine breeding distribution and vegetation associations of a declining, habitat-specialist songbird in Colorado, USA

open access: yesAvian Conservation and Ecology
Documenting the breeding habitat and distribution of migratory songbirds is essential for accurately assessing their conservation status. The “sagebrush” subspecies of the Brewer’s Sparrow ( Spizella breweri breweri ) breeds in greatest abundance in ...

Mammal Community Responses to Increasing Puma Activity in a Suburban Preserve

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
Using nine years of camera‐trap data from a suburban preserve, we found preliminary, convergent evidence that increasing puma activity coincided with changes in black‐tailed deer, bobcat and coyote activity. Evidence for changes in brush rabbit and grey fox activity, as well as woody plant density, is more tentative and warrants further study, but ...

Short‐Interval Fire and Climatic Drying Drive Shrubland‐to‐Herbaceous Conversion Across California

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Our statewide analysis shows that woody shrublands across California are undergoing widespread conversion to herbaceous vegetation. Using multi‐decadal fractional cover data, we show that short‐interval fire in conjunction with climatic drying and human influence is driving this transformation, extending a phenomenon previously thought to be limited to

Monitoring Change in Floodplain Vegetation Due To River Restoration Treatments With Remote Sensing in the Intermountain West

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract River corridors are essential to life, but have been subjected to centuries of alteration, disconnection, and simplification. Process‐based river restoration has increased in recent years, with the goals of reversing degradation and reestablishing natural processes. Our objectives are twofold: (a) qualify the historic, ecologic, and geomorphic
