Sinks without borders: snowshoe hare dynamics in a complex landscape

OIKOS, 118(10), 1487–1498.

By: P. Griffin & L. Mills

TL;DR: The results support a conceptual model for snowshoe hares in the southern range in which sink habitats (open areas) prevent the buildup of high hare densities and develop a novel approach to quantify demographic sources and sinks for animals making routine movements through complex fragmented landscapes.

MARMOTS ON THE MOVE? DISPERSAL IN A DECLINING MONTANE MAMMAL

JOURNAL OF MAMMALOGY, 90(3), 686–695.

By: S. Griffin, P. Griffin, M. Taper & L. Mills

author keywords: dispersal; Kaplan-Meier; Marmota olympus; metapopulation; Olympic marmot; radiotelemetry; translocations
TL;DR: If the observed dispersal patterns are representative of range-wide patterns and if Olympic marmot densities remain low, successful dispersal may be too infrequent to sustain reliable recolonization of vacant habitats or even genetic or demographic rescue of isolated marmot groups.

DISTRIBUTION AND ABUNDANCE OF SNOWSHOE HARES IN YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK

JOURNAL OF MAMMALOGY, 90(4), 870–878.

By: K. Hodges, L. Mills & K. Murphy

author keywords: fire; habitat; Lepus americanus; lodgepole pine; snowshoe hare; Yellowstone National Park
TL;DR: It is indicated that snowshoe hares in Yellowstone are rare, patchily distributed, and apparently acyclic, important findings both for understanding hare dynamics and for implications for the Yellowstone food web that includes the federally Threatened Canada lynx. (via Semantic Scholar)

A better way to estimate population trends

OIKOS, 118(12), 1940–1946.

By: J. Humbert, L. Mills, J. Horne & B. Dennis

TL;DR: The performance of the EGSS model even with half of the counts in the time series missing implies that trend estimates may be improved by diverting effort away from annual monitoring and towards increasing time series length or improving precision of the abundance estimates for years that data are collected.

Profiling Capacity for Coordination and Systems Change: The Relative Contribution of Stakeholder Relationships in Interorganizational Collaboratives

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF COMMUNITY PSYCHOLOGY, 44(3-4), 196–212.

By: B. Nowell n

author keywords: Collaboration; Coalitions; Interorganizational relationships; Systems change; Coordination; Social networks
MeSH headings : Community-Institutional Relations; Cooperative Behavior; Decision Making; Domestic Violence / prevention & control; Humans; Interprofessional Relations; Psychology
TL;DR: Findings indicate that, relative to other key characteristics of collaboratives identified in previous literature, cooperative stakeholder relationships were the strongest predictor of systems change outcomes, but for coordination outcomes, stakeholders relationships were overshadowed in importance by the leadership and decision making capacity of the collaborative.

By: U. Dougherty n, D. Cerasi n, I. Taylor n, M. Kocherginsky n, U. Tekin n, S. Badal n, L. Aluri n, A. Sehdev n ...

MeSH headings : Animals; Azoxymethane / pharmacology; Blood Glucose / metabolism; Colonic Neoplasms / metabolism; Cyclooxygenase 2 / metabolism; Dextran Sulfate / pharmacology; ErbB Receptors / metabolism; Gene Expression Regulation, Neoplastic; Insulin / blood; Insulin Resistance; Ligands; Mice; Mice, Inbred C57BL; Point Mutation; Transforming Growth Factor alpha / metabolism
TL;DR: Egfrwt mice gained significantly more weight and had exaggerated insulin resistance compared with Egfrwa2 mice on high-fat diet, and EGFR-dependent increases in receptor ligands and PTGS2 likely drive diet-related tumor promotion. (via Semantic Scholar)

By: E. Meck n, J. Walgenbach n & G. Kennedy n

author keywords: aerial dispersal; overwinter; twospotted spider mite
TL;DR: The capture of mites on sticky traps indicated that aerial dispersal was also a means of dispersal to overwintering hosts, and vegetation management strategies had no effect on mite densities found in the chickweed. (via Semantic Scholar)
