Spatial Predation Risk and Interactions Within a Predator Community on the Rocky Mountains East Slopes, Alberta
DownloadSpring 2019
Understanding how large carnivores spatially partition the landscape is essential for understanding how they collectively pose risk to their prey. Most research on predation risk focuses on how prey respond to a single predator species, but prey respond to a community of predators. Additionally,...

State-space models link elk movement patterns to landscape characteristics in Yellowstone National Park
Download2007
Smith, D. W., Anderson, D. P., Ives, A. R., Turner, M. G., Beyer, H. L., Boyce, M. S., Forester, J. D., Fortin, D.
Explaining and predicting animal movement in heterogeneous landscapes remains challenging. This is in part because movement paths often include a series of short, localized displacements separated by longer-distance forays. This multiphasic movement behavior reflects the complex response of an...

Succession, herbicides, forage nutrition and elk body condition at Mount St. Helens, Washington
DownloadSpring 2014
Concerns have been voiced over recent reductions in forest cutting, herbicide spraying, and past heavy grazing on nutritional resources for elk (Cervus elaphus) and their body condition in the Pacific Northwest. I evaluated the effects of herbicides and herbivory on elk forage in a paired,...
