The American Oystercatcher (Haematopus palliatus) Working Group: 15 Years of Collaborative Focal Species Research and Management

Waterbirds, 40(sp1), 1.

By: T. Simons n

TL;DR: Accomplishments over the past 15 years include the establishment of rangewide surveys, color-banding protocols, mark-resight studies, a revision of the Birds of North America species account, and new mechanisms for sharing ideas and data that illustrate how broad collaborative approaches and the engagement of the public are key elements of effective shorebird conservation programs.

Tangible geospatial modeling for collaborative solutions to invasive species management

ENVIRONMENTAL MODELLING & SOFTWARE, 92, 176–188.

By: F. Tonini n, D. Shoemaker n, A. Petrasova n, B. Harmon n, V. Petras n, R. Cobb*, H. Mitasova n, R. Meentemeyer n

MeSH headings : Cosmetics / analysis; Environmental Monitoring; Forests; Groundwater / analysis; Pharmaceutical Preparations / analysis; Soil / chemistry; Wastewater; Water Pollutants, Chemical / analysis
TL;DR: PPCP concentrations in surface waters were greater at the onset of significant storm events and during low-rainfall periods when total summed PPCPs were higher than the annual average, and the more hydrophobic chemicals were predominant in soil over water. (via Semantic Scholar)

Managing Native Predators: Evidence from a Partial Removal of Raccoons (Procyon lotor) on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, USA

Waterbirds, 40(sp1), 10–18.

By: J. Stocking*, T. Simons*, A. Parsons* & A. O'Connell*

TL;DR: Either the raccoon reduction was inadequate, or factors other than predation cause more variation in nest success than previously recognized, which means a multi-faceted approach to management aimed at reducing nest losses to storm overwash, predation, and human disturbance is likely to yield the largest population level benefits.

Managing American Oystercatcher (Haematopus palliatus) Population Growth by Targeting Nesting Season Vital Rates

Waterbirds, 40(sp1), 44–54.

TL;DR: Results are heavily dependent on assumptions of other vital rates, most notably adult survival, revealing the need for accurate estimates of all vital rates to inform management actions and provides valuable insights for evaluating conservation goals for species of concern.
