Do Payments Pay Off? Evidence from Participation in Costa Rica's PES Program
PLOS ONE, 10(7).
MeSH headings : Agriculture / economics; Agriculture / methods; Animal Husbandry / economics; Animal Husbandry / methods; Animals; Cattle; Conservation of Natural Resources / economics; Conservation of Natural Resources / methods; Costa Rica; Ecosystem; Humans; Ownership / economics; Surveys and Questionnaires
TL;DR:
Despite the substantial cash transfers to voluntary participants in this program, it is found that there is no evidence of impacts on their wealth or self-reported well-being using a quasi-experimental design, consistent with the common claim that voluntary PES do not harm participants.

Abdominal ultrasonographic findings in acromegalic cats
JOURNAL OF FELINE MEDICINE AND SURGERY, 17(8), 698–703.
MeSH headings : Acromegaly / pathology; Acromegaly / veterinary; Animals; Case-Control Studies; Cat Diseases / blood; Cat Diseases / diagnostic imaging; Cat Diseases / pathology; Cats; Female; Insulin-Like Growth Factor I / metabolism; Male; Reference Values; Retrospective Studies; Statistics, Nonparametric; Ultrasonography
TL;DR:
Findings indicate that compared with non-acromegalic cats, age-matched acromegaly patients have measurably larger kidneys, adrenal glands and pancreas than poorly regulated diabetic cats exhibiting organomegaly on abdominal ultrasound examination.

Use of Dynamic Occupancy Models to Assess the Response of Darters (Teleostei: Percidae) to Varying Hydrothermal Conditions in a Southeastern United States Tailwater
RIVER RESEARCH AND APPLICATIONS, 31(6), 676–691.
author keywords: stream fishes; patch dynamics; water resource management; regulated rivers
TL;DR:
This study demonstrates the application of a trait‐based approach combined with a metapopulation framework to assess the patch dynamics of darters in a regulated river and will provide a baseline for evaluating the ecological consequences of alternative dam operations.

Small Mammal Use of Native Warm-Season and Non-Native Cool-Season Grass Forage Fields
WILDLIFE SOCIETY BULLETIN, 39(1), 49–55.
author keywords: forage production; haying; Mus musculus; native warm-season grass; non-native cool-season grass; Peromyscus leucopus; Sigmodon hispidus
TL;DR:
A hierarchical spatially explicit capture–recapture model is developed to compare abundance of hispid cotton rats, white-footed mice, and house mice among 4 hayed non-native cool-season grass fields, and 4 native warm- season grass–forb fields managed for wildlife during 2 summer trapping periods of the western piedmont of North Carolina, USA.

Prescribed fire affects female white-tailed deer habitat use during summer lactation
Forest Ecology and Management, 348, 220–225.
author keywords: Fire-return interval; Longleaf pine; Pinus palustris; Compositional analysis; Cover; Odocoileus virginianus
TL;DR:
Female deer increased selection of burned areas as years-since-fire increased, likely because there was a temporary loss of cover immediately following fire with plants slowly regenerating the subsequent growing seasons and to avoid areas depleted of cover.

Poor soils and density-mediated body weight in deer: forage quality or quantity?
WILDLIFE BIOLOGY, 21(4), 213–219.
TL;DR:
Contrary to previous reports from poor productivity soil regions, deer on the study site should be able to meet lactation requirements when the quantity of high-quality forage is not limiting, and similarly body weight should be density-mediated.
