Assessing red wolf conservation based on analyses of habitat suitability and human perception of carnivores
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
wolf historic range is suitable for them based on landscape, prey density, human population, and road type factors. Further, we examined public landscapes that are presumably large enough (>1,000km[2)] to sustain a red wolf population. We found...
Quantifying neonicotinoid concentrations in Missouri wetlands, their driving factors, and the potential effects on the reliant avian community
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Neonicotinoid insecticides became available for commercial use in North America in the late 20th Century. Since their introduction, studies of surface waters where neonicotinoids are available for use have measured ...
Forest adaptation and transition in the eastern united states under climate change : a forest landscape modeling method
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Forest management is rapidly shifting in focus to address the adaptive capacity of forests under uncertain future climates. Managers and researchers often utilize models to proactively develop strategies for forest adaptation ...
Evaluation and development of first order fire effects mortality model predictions for eastern hardwood forests
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
The First Order Fire Effects Model (FOFEM) is a useful tool for predicting fire-induced mortality in western coniferous forests. However, it lacks robust models for eastern hardwood species. Managers in the eastern United ...
Heterogeneity in body condition, survival, and seasonal origins among lesser snow and Ross's geese
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Individual heterogeneity in fitness within a population is well established and provides the required variability for natural selection to take place. Yet, in the case of overabundant midcontinent lesser snow (Anser ...
