Factors affecting wetland connectivity for wintering semipalmated sandpipers (Calidris pusilla) in the Caribbean
Waterbirds, 39(3), 250–259.
TL;DR:
It is indicated that coastal wetlands in southwestern Puerto Rico were connected, pointing at the joint value of salt flats and mangroves for overwintering Semipalmated Sandpipers, which likely widens resource diversity, which is essential for coping with unpredictable environments.

Factors Affecting Occupancy and Abundance of American Alligators at the Northern Extent of Their Range
JOURNAL OF HERPETOLOGY, 50(4), 541–547.
TL;DR:
Assessment of the distribution of alligators in North Carolina using a site-occupancy design and a repeated sampling design for population estimation showed that both occupancy and abundance decreased in more northern sites, in sites with higher salinity, and in sites that were generally more westward.

Wildfire and forest disease interaction lead to greater loss of soil nutrients and carbon
OECOLOGIA, 182(1), 265–276.
author keywords: Phytophthora ramorum; Sudden oak death; Tanoak; Nitrogen; Invasive pathogens; Ecosystem disease impacts
MeSH headings : Carbon; Fires; Forests; Phytophthora; Plant Diseases; Soil; Trees

What makes wildlife wild? How identity may shape the public trust versus wildlife privatization debate
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 40(3), 428–435.
author keywords: argumentation; ethics; freedom; hunting; identity; law; neoliberalism; public trust doctrine; slavery; wildlife commodification; wildlife privatization
TL;DR:
It is suggested policy decisions regarding privatization of wildlife will be more accurately deliberated if society and wildlife professionals more completely considered the degree to which freedom is essential to a wild species’ identity and thedegree to which that identity is inviolable.

The ecological impact of humans and dogs on wildlife in protected areas in eastern North America
BIOLOGICAL CONSERVATION, 203, 75–88.
author keywords: Camera traps; Coyote; Hikers; Domestic dog; Protected areas; Risk-disturbance
TL;DR:
Investigating how humans, dogs and coyotes used protected areas and behavioral responses by three prey species indicated that humans are perceived as a greater risk than coyotes, and this increases when dogs accompany their owners.

Species traits and catchment-scale habitat factors influence the occurrence of freshwater mussel populations and assemblages
Freshwater Biology, 61(10), 1671–1684.
author keywords: Bayesian hierarchical modelling; imperfect detection; rare species; species richness; unionid
TL;DR:
Catchment-scale abiotic variables and species traits influenced the occurrence of mussel assemblages more than reach- or microhabitat-scale features and indicate that habitat restoration alone may not be adequate for mussel conservation.

Predicting the offshore distribution and abundance of marine birds with a hierarchical community distance sampling model
ECOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS, 26(6), 1797–1815.
author keywords: Bayesian; marine spatial planning; multi-species models; offshore wind energy development; seabird conservation; foraging ecology
MeSH headings : Animal Distribution; Animals; Charadriiformes / physiology; Conservation of Natural Resources; Models, Biological; Population Density
TL;DR:
The results show the importance of quantifying detection and determining the ecological drivers of a community's distribution and abundance, within and among species, for evaluating the potential exposure of marine birds to offshore development.

Performance of genomic prediction within and across generations in maritime pine
BMC GENOMICS, 17(1).
author keywords: Genomic selection; Growth; Multiple generations; Pinus pinaster; Progeny validation; Relatedness; Stem straightness
MeSH headings : Bayes Theorem; Genetic Markers; Genome, Plant; Genotype; Models, Genetic; Phenotype; Pinus / genetics; Plant Breeding / statistics & numerical data; Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide; Quantitative Trait Loci; Quantitative Trait, Heritable; Selection, Genetic
TL;DR:
This study suggests that the training of prediction models on parental populations can predict the genetic merit of the progeny with high accuracy: an encouraging result for the implementation of GS in the maritime pine breeding program.

How Climate Change Beliefs among US Teachers Do and Do Not Translate to Students
PLOS ONE, 11(9).
Contributors: K. Stevenson n , M. Peterson n & A. Bradshaw n
Ed(s): J. Wouwe
MeSH headings : Adolescent; Climate Change; Female; Global Warming; Humans; Interpersonal Relations; Male; North Carolina; Public Opinion; School Teachers / psychology; Students / psychology; Surveys and Questionnaires
TL;DR:
It appears that as long as climate change information is presented in classrooms, students deduce anthropogenic causes and science teachers’ low recognition of the causes of global warming is not necessarily problematic in terms of student outcomes.

Winter bird use of harvest residues in clearcuts and the implications of forest bioenergy harvest in the southeastern United States
FOREST ECOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT, 379, 91–101.
author keywords: Biomass harvesting guidelines; Clearcut; Downed wood; Forest bioenergy; Harvest residues; Winter birds
TL;DR:
Evaluated effects of varying intensities of woody biomass harvest on the winter bird community and document spatial associations between winter bird species and available habitat structure, including downed wood, in regenerating stands suggest woody forestry harvests in intensively managed pine forests had no effect on theWinter bird community, but winter birds used harvest residues.

When Big Data are Too Much: Effects of LiDAR Returns and Point Density on Estimation of Forest Biomass
IEEE JOURNAL OF SELECTED TOPICS IN APPLIED EARTH OBSERVATIONS AND REMOTE SENSING, 9(7), 3210–3218.
author keywords: Aboveground biomass; data reduction; large-area assessments; light detection and ranging (LiDAR); multiple linear regression (MLR); point density and returns; urban forest
TL;DR:
Examination of the combined effects of LiDAR returns and data reduction on field-measured estimates of aboveground forest biomass in deciduous and mixed evergreen forests in an urbanized region of North Carolina, USA suggests thatLiDAR first returns at reduced point density provide sufficient data for mapping urban forest biomass and may be an effective alternative to multireturn data.
