Estimating geographic variation on allometric growth and body condition of blue suckers with quantile regression Estimating geographic variation on allometric growth and body condition of blue suckers with quantile regression
Increasing our understanding of how environmental factors affect fish body condition and improving its utility as a metric of aquatic system health require reliable estimates of spatial variation in condition (weight at length). We used three statistical approaches that varied in how they accounted for heterogeneity in allometric growth to estimate differences in body condition of blue...

Sagebrush ecosystem conservation and management: Ecoregional assessment tools and models for the Wyoming Basins Sagebrush ecosystem conservation and management: Ecoregional assessment tools and models for the Wyoming Basins
The Wyoming Basins are one of the remaining strongholds of the sagebrush ecosystem. However, like most sagebrush habitats, threats to this region are numerous. This book adds to current knowledge about the regional status of the sagebrush ecosystem, the distribution of habitats, the threats to the ecosystem, and the influence of threats and habitat conditions on occurrence and abundance...
Genetic and environmental influences on leaf phenology and cold hardiness of native and introduced riparian trees Genetic and environmental influences on leaf phenology and cold hardiness of native and introduced riparian trees
To explore the roles of plasticity and genetic variation in the response to spatial and temporal climate variation, we established a common garden consisting of paired collections of native and introduced riparian trees sampled along a latitudinal gradient. The garden in Fort Collins, Colorado (latitude 40.6°N), included 681 native plains cottonwood (Populus deltoides subsp. monilifera)...

Chapter 4: A sampling and analytical approach to develop spatial distribution models for sagebrush-associated species Chapter 4: A sampling and analytical approach to develop spatial distribution models for sagebrush-associated species
Understanding multi-scale floral and faunal responses to human land use is crucial for informing natural resource management and conservation planning. However, our knowledge on how land use influences sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecosystems is limited primarily to site-specific studies. To fill this void, studies across large regions are needed that address how species are distributed...
