Annual Dispersal of Endangered Burrowing Owls (Athene cunicularia): Implications for Estimating Survival
DownloadSpring 2022
The migratory population of Burrowing Owl (Athene cunicularia) in Canada has undergone significant declines over the past five decades. Monitoring of Burrowing Owl includes estimation of annual survival which is predominantly obtained using mark-recapture data. Survival is calculated based on...

Factors Influencing Mountain Pine Beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) Dispersal by Flight and Subsequent Trade-off Between Beetle Flight and Reproduction
DownloadFall 2016
The mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae), has an obligatory dispersal phase before selection of a suitable host for brood production. Flight during the dispersal phase is affected by both beetle physiology and environmental factors....

Local and regional demography in a migratory forest songbird and effects of forest management intensity
DownloadSpring 2014
The numerical response of forest birds to habitat alteration has been well documented in North America, but the underlying demographic processes driving these changes remain largely unknown. Among species sensitive to such alterations, the Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapilla) shows one of the largest...
