Winter ecology of migratory Brazilian free-tailed bats (Tadarida brasiliensis) in bridges of the southwestern United States.
… especially the southwest, Brazilian free-tails (Tadarida brasiliensis: I. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1824) are arguably the most abundant bat in the western hemisphere. These insectivorous bats range from Nebraska to Latin America and from Oregon to North Carolina. Populations migrate frequently …

Availability of Organochlorides and Accumulation in Populations of Tadarida brasiliensis (Free-Tailed Bat) and Eptesicus fuscus (Big Brown Bat)
… The effects of organochlorides on bats such as Tadarida brasiliensis and Eptesicus fuscus have been intensively studied. The effects can range from problems with reproduction to mortality. My analysis of populations of T. brasiliensis and E. fuscus showed that organochlorides are still present …

Advances in the reconstruction of temperature history, physiology and paleoenvironmental change : evidence from light stable isotope chemistry
… of chitin derived from Mexican free-tailed bat (Tadarida brasiliensis) guano are presented, providing a record of abrupt climate change. Thus, this thesis reports on promising new research avenues for paleoclimatology, paleoecology, and modern ecology.

Understanding Wind Energy Impacts on Bats and Testing Reduction Strategies in South Texas
… rate, in which Brazilian free-tailed bats (Tadarida brasiliensis) were the most impacted species. Based on my results, I recommend bat impact reduction strategies for this location and others in the region experiencing similar impacts. Los Vientos has a similar bat species composition and …

Structure of an Ensemble of Insectivorous Bats
Ensembles of species show distinct characteristics that may permit resource partitioning but few studies focus on more than one or two traits. Using seven sympatric Jamaican bats, I examined features which could allow for spatial, temporal, behavioural and dietary partitioning including wing …
