2008 article

The conservation and breeding of Eucalyptus urophylla: a case study to better protect important populations and improve productivity

Dvorak, W. S., Hodge, G. R., & Payn, K. G. (2008, August). SOUTHERN FORESTS-A JOURNAL OF FOREST SCIENCE, Vol. 70, pp. 77–85.

By: W. Dvorak n, G. Hodge* & K. Payn*

author keywords: Camcore; conservation status; disease; genetic diversity
TL;DR: An ex situ conservation strategy to protect populations that are most threatened but also show the greatest productivity across countries is developed and it is suggested that volcanism played an important role in its distribution and levels of genetic diversity on the islands.

2008 journal article

Spatio-temporal analysis of Xyleborus glabratus (Coleoptera : Circulionidae : Scolytinae) invasion in eastern US forests

ENVIRONMENTAL ENTOMOLOGY, 37(2), 442–452.

By: F. Koch* & W. Smith*

author keywords: Xyleborus glabratus; ambrosia beetle; redbay; climate matching; cost-weighted distance
TL;DR: Key areas with high concentrations of redbay have yet to be invaded, but some are immediately threatened; climatic conditions may serve to constrain X. glabratus to the southeastern U.S. coastal region; and disruption of anthropogenic, long-distance dispersal could reduce the likelihood of this outcome.

2008 journal article

Estimated home ranges can misrepresent habitat relationships on patchy landscapes

ECOLOGICAL MODELLING, 216(3-4), 409–414.

author keywords: habitat quality; home range estimate; optimal home range; patchy landscape; resource distribution
TL;DR: The potential bias of including unselected, largely irrelevant patches in the field estimates of home ranges of animals can be high, particularly for home range estimators that assume uniform use of space within home range boundaries. (via Semantic Scholar)

A comparison of methods for estimating northern bobwhite covey detection probabilities

Journal of Wildlife Management, 72(6), 1437–1442.

TL;DR: Although the time-of-detection and logistic regression method each have advantages, both can be used under appropriate conditions to improve estimates of bobwhite abundance by allowing for the estimation of detection probabilities. (via Semantic Scholar)

2008 journal article

Maximum height in a conifer is associated with conflicting requirements for xylem design

PROCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 105(33), 12069–12074.

By: J. Domec n, B. Lachenbruch*, F. Meinzer*, D. Woodruff*, J. Warren* & K. McCulloh*

author keywords: air-seeding pressure; bordered pit; embolism; hydraulic architecture; Pseudotsuga menziesii
MeSH headings : Pseudotsuga / growth & development; Xylem / growth & development
TL;DR: The results suggest that the maximum height of Douglas-fir trees may be limited in part by the conflicting requirements for water transport and water column safety. (via Semantic Scholar)

EFFECTS OF VEGETATION AND BACKGROUND NOISE ON THE DETECTION PROCESS IN AUDITORY AVIAN POINT-COUNT SURVEYS

The Auk, 125(3), 600–607.

By: K. Pacifici n, T. Simons n & K. Pollock n

author keywords: aural detections; background noise; detection probability; habitat effects; point counts; population indices
TL;DR: The large differences in detection probabilities among species suggest that tailoring monitoring protocols to specific species of interest may produce better estimates than a single protocol applied to a wide range of species. (via Semantic Scholar)

Chloroplast DNA phylogeography in long-lived Huon pine, a Tasmanian rain forest conifer

CANADIAN JOURNAL OF FOREST RESEARCH, 38(6), 1576–1589.

By: C. Clark n & I. Carbone n

TL;DR: Genealogy based methods were used to estimate phylogeographic history for a Tasmanian endemic conifer, Huon pine, and two of the five haplotypes were widely distributed, but the most frequently occurring haplotype was found only in the western portion of the range. (via Semantic Scholar)

An evaluation of long-term capture effects in ursids: Implications for wildlife welfare and research

JOURNAL OF MAMMALOGY, 89(4), 973–990.

By: M. Cattet*, J. Boulanger, G. Stenhouse*, R. Powell n & M. Reynolds-Hogland*

author keywords: American black bear; body condition; exertional myopathy; grizzly bear; long-term capture effects; movement rates; muscle injury; ursids; Ursus americanus; Ursus arctos
TL;DR: The effect of repeated captures on age-related changes in body condition of 127 grizzly bears and 207 black bears was found to be poorer than that of bears captured once only, with the magnitude of effect directly proportional to number of times captured and the effect more evident with age.

By: K. Payn n, W. Dvorak n, B. Janse & A. Myburg*

author keywords: SSR; breeding; conservation; Eucalypt
TL;DR: Gene flow among the populations is likely responsible for the apparent weak influence of geographic insularity on the genetic diversity and structure of the island species. (via Semantic Scholar)
