Robust assessment of associations between weather and eastern wild turkey nest success

The Journal of Wildlife Management, 88(2).

author keywords: climate change; Galliformes; Meleagris gallopavo; Phasianidae; precipitation; temperature; wet hen hypothesis
TL;DR: Temperature and precipitation have been identified as factors that potentially influence eastern wild turkey reproduction, but robust analyses testing the relationship between weather parameters and turkey nest success are lacking, and projections of future nest success or daily nest survival suggest that nest success may increase as January precipitation increases and thatdaily nest survival may increaseAs temperature during incubation increases.

Effects of group size and group density on trade‐offs in resource selection by a group‐territorial central‐place foraging woodpecker

Ibis, 162(2), 477–491.

By: J. Garabedian n, C. Moorman n, M. Peterson n & J. Kilgo*

author keywords: competition; density dependence; endangered species; forest structure; functional response; LiDAR; Red-cockaded Woodpecker; space use
TL;DR: Modelling effects of group size on foraging distances and selection for high‐quality pines and lower quality pines in Red‐cockaded Woodpecker Leuconotopicus borealis groups suggests intraspecific competition at high group density entails substantive costs to smaller groups of territorial central‐place foragers by limiting accessibility of distant high‐ quality foraging resources.

Neighboring group density is more important than forest stand age to a threatened social woodpecker population

TL;DR: Although forest structure has been linked to increased RCW group sizes and productivity, the results suggest that with ongoing habitat management, long-term changes in group size and fledgling production will be driven primarily by group density conditions rather than changing forest age.

author keywords: Endangered species; Habitat threshold; Pine forest; Meta-analysis; Population fitness; Recovery plan
TL;DR: Qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) is demonstrated as a tool that can reliably synthesize habitat-fitness relationships from small sample sizes for species with narrow habitat requirements and can be extended to address many complex issues in endangered species recovery when correlative meta-analyses are not possible.

author keywords: core-area; density dependence; fitness; home-range; overlap; Red-cockaded Woodpecker; resident species; territoriality; Thiessen polygons
TL;DR: The results indicate that endangered Redcockaded Woodpeckers Leuconotopicus borealis dedicate more effort to territorial defence under high-density conditions, potentially at the expense of greater foraging efficiency and time allocated to reproduction, as evidenced by reduced fitness.

SOUTHEASTERN NATURALIST, 17(1), 104–116.

TL;DR: Investigation of habitat selection of Bachman's Sparrow on Fort Bragg Military Installation indicated that other habitat features provided critical cover within extensive upland Longleaf Pine-Aristida stricta (Wiregrass) forest, supporting the importance of frequent prescribed fire to maintain herbaceous groundcover used by birds for nesting and foraging.

author keywords: behaviors; cavity trees; conspecific density; endangered species; LiDAR; multi-scale; Red-cockaded Woodpecker
TL;DR: Results indicate distribution of neighboring groups was the most important predictor of space use once a minimal set of structural habitat thresholds was reached, and that placing recruitment clusters as little as 400 m from foraging partitions of neighbor groups may promote establishment of new breeding groups in unoccupied habitat.

author keywords: Araneae; Fire-maintained; Invertebrate; Longleaf pine; Orthoptera; Prescribed fire
TL;DR: The results indicate the use of frequent prescribed fire to restore and maintain longleaf forests is unlikely to pose risks to overall macroarthropod biomass, particularly if heterogeneity in fire frequency and spatial extent occurs on the landscape. (via Semantic Scholar)

Reptile and amphibian response to season of burn in an upland hardwood forest

FOREST ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT, 409, 808–816.

author keywords: Amphibians; Growing-season burn; Herpetofauna; Lizard; Prescribed fire; Plestiodon fasciatus; Reptiles; Terrestrial salamanders; Season of burn
TL;DR: It is suggested that even modest reductions in canopy cover may positively affect relative abundance and reproductive success of P. fasciatus, and that herpetofaunal response, for the species studied, is more closely linked to change in canopycover than to season of burn per se.

Wild Turkey Prenesting-Resource Selection in a Landscape Managed with Frequent Prescribed Fire

Southeastern Naturalist, 14(1), 137–146.

By: E. Kilburg n, C. Moorman n, C. DePerno n, D. Cobb* & C. Harper*

TL;DR: Forage and nesting cover available to female Meleagris gallopavo (Wild Turkey) prior to nesting can influence nest success, and recent dormant-season burns may provide an important source of nutrition for pre-nesting females and should be used in addition to growing- season burns when managing for Wild Turkeys.
