Sagebrush Steppe Wildlife in a Working Landscape Habitat Use, Abundance, and Detection [PDF]
Sagebrush steppe habitat and associated wildlife are a conservation priority in Washington. However, much of the remaining sagebrush steppe in east-central Washington has been degraded and fragmented from conversion to agricultural fields, increased ...

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.During an outbreak of 7 wildfires in eastern Oregon, USA, we analyzed the home range and movement patterns of mule deer and elk before, during, and immediately after wildfires. Mule deer maintained high site fidelity during the wildfire but used their home range more uniformly and had higher daily displacement than deer unaffected by wildfire.

Tracking a Rangeland Fire With Infrasound Arrays
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.Abstract We present the first infrasound analyses of a rangeland fire and demonstrate infrasound's potential in monitoring wildland fires. We recorded a prescribed fire in sagebrush steppe in cool, moist conditions, using eight infrasound arrays of diverse size (3–44 sensors, 10–200 m width) and distance (0–20 km), including four arrays inside the burn

Trajectories and drivers of compositional and functional variation in sagebrush steppe restoration
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 3, July–September 2026.Restoration success is often challenged by unpredictable and undesirable outcomes, especially in arid systems like the sagebrush steppe. In an 11‐year study in Grand Teton National Park, climatic conditions during establishment and local soil texture drove long‐term differences in plant community composition and functional traits.

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 5, July 2026.Management of bison in Yellowstone National Park under the available strategies that maintained ≥3,500 individuals (1:1 sex ratio), removed <40% of the population at a time and prioritized relatives for removal were predicted to maintain genetic variation at levels consistent with long‐term conservation (>95% of existing variation).

Response of Sagebrush Steppe Species to Elevated CO2 and Soil Temperature [PDF]
, 2005 Elevated atmospheric CO2 may cause long-term changes in the productivity and species composition of the sagebrush steppe. Few studies, however, have evaluated the effects of increased CO2 on growth and physiology of species important to this ecosystem ...
