Data

This data release contains the spatial raster outputs, R code, and lookup table from a synthesis of U.S. Forest Service Activity Tracking System (FACTS) vegetation management activities hypothesized to influence bat habitat. The included raster data cover the continental United States and represent the number of years that have passed since a given management action was implemented...

This data release includes citation details, abstracts, and results of a semi-automated content analysis for 88 publications we identified on the topic of the potential effects of traffic from oil and gas development on invasive annual grasses. Our goal was to develop a structured literature search and semi-automated content analysis process to compile and provide an initial...

This dataset contains raster layers for environmental characteristics for freshwater habitats including waterbodies (standing water including lakes and wetlands) and streams (moving water) for the contiguous United States. These data can be used to model habitat suitability of non-native species in the contiguous United States. Habitat predictors were developed in four suites: current...

This is a dataset containing the potential distribution of 103 invasive species found in or adjacent to freshwater environments. We developed habitat suitability models for invasive freshwater species selected by resource management agencies and other managers. We adapted the modeling workflow described in Jarnevich et al. (2024, https://doi.org/10.3897/neobiota.96.134842). We developed...

This is a dataset containing the potential distribution of 54 invasive terrestrial plant species. We developed habitat suitability models for invasive plant species selected by Department of Interior and USDA Forest Service land management agencies and other managers. We applied the modeling workflow described in Jarnevich et al. (2024: https://doi.org/10.3897/neobiota.96.134842)...

These spatial layers were created to provide estimates of relative risk of a mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) contracting chronic wasting disease (CWD) based on environmental properties of habitat visited by the deer. We modeled relative risk of disease transmission using location data from GPS-collared mule deer in Wyoming that were CWD-tested annually, and used generalized linear models...

This dataset includes multiple data types from long-term monitoring and research on Rowe Mesa, NM, including data on surface fuels, ground cover, overstory tree metrics, regeneration, and tree-ring widths before and after burning and thinning treatments from 2005-2024. This data release includes 8 CSV files: DBH_DSH_conversion_data.csv (data used to create a regression of tree diameters...

We designed and implemented snake-resistant nestboxes and tested their efficacy as a conservation tool by comparing nest survival in nestboxes to natural nests for Aplonis opaca (Såli, Micronesian Starling) on Guam. During 2016-2018, we monitored 340 nest attempts by 40 A. opaca pairs nesting in nestboxes and 53 attempts by 32 pairs nesting in natural nests (outside of nestboxes), for a...

Data were collected on the seed production and genetic diversity of Lepidium draba, an invasive plant. Site characteristics were also measured for 26 sites throughout northern Colorado. In addition, a pollen supplementation experiment was conducted at six of those sites, in which L. draba plants were pollinated with within-population pollen, among-population pollen, or were not...

This data release includes a set of 25 rasters representing solutions (and associated input data) to two sagebrush conservation problems that identify optimal sites across the state of Wyoming for protection or restoration action (based on management-relevant inputs and constraints). The arid sagebrush-steppe ecosystems of western North America are undergoing substantial loss and...

The dataset contains the gastrointestinal contents of 275 Argentine black and white tegus (Salvator merianae) collected between 2016 and 2021 from two geographically isolated populations in Florida: one in Miami-Dade County, established around 2011, and another in Charlotte County, established in 2018. Dietary analysis revealed a broad spectrum of consumed items, including vertebrates

These data contain results and model code from the North American Bat Monitoring Program's (NABat) integrated species distribution and trend models for the hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus) and silver-haired bat (Lasionycteris noctivagans). These results document population status and trends based on the first continental-scale, comprehensive analysis of NABat data for tree bats (2012–2023)
