The ecology of eastern small-footed bats at Shenandoah National Park
… was developed to detect the presence of summer day-roosting eastern small-footed bats. I explored a novel methodology expanding on this technique, whereby I conducted visual searches of talus slopes at Shenandoah National Park, Virginia, modeled bat abundance by topographic variables, and …

Day-roosting Social Ecology of the Northern Long-eared Bat (Myotis septentrionalis) and the Endangered Indiana Bat (Myotis sodalis)
Day-roost use by northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis) maternity colonies on the Fort Knox military reservation, Kentucky, USA, resulted in formation of non-random networks of roosts that exhibited a trend toward centralization. Centralization of day-roost networks was reflected in the …

Winter movements and habitat use of northern saw-whet owls at Assateague Island, Maryland
… site characteristics were measured at 30 day roosts in 3 m plots. Variables measured included number of stems 2.5 cm DBH, roost tree height, roost tree species, canopy cover, average canopy height, average shrub height, roost DBH, distance to nearest tree, and percent ground cover. …

Roost-Site Selection of Bats in Northeast Missouri With Emphasis on the Endangered Indiana Bat (Myotis Sodalis)
Roosts are an integral habitat component for bat species and may dictate their survival and fitness. I used radiotelemetry to study the roosting ecology of the endangered Indiana bat, Myotis sodalis, at Deer Ridge Conservation Area (DRCA) in northeast Missouri from May through August 2001-2002. Due …

Assessment Of Natural Roost Availability And Artificial Roost Preference By Indiana Bats In Scott County, Kentucky
In addition to using natural roosts, Indiana bats (Myotis sodalis) form maternity colonies in artificial roosts such as rocket boxes and bark-mimic structures. However, few Indiana bat study systems contain multiple artificial roost types alongside natural roosting options. I sought to analyze …

Spatial Ecology and Conservation Strategies for the Endangered Northern Long-Eared Bat (<i>Myotis septentrionalis</i>) in a Post-White-Nose Syndrome Landscape
… and loblolly pine (<i>Pinus taeda</i>) as day-roosts, but then used sweetgum (<i>Liquidambar styraciflua</i>), swamp bay (<i>Persea palustris</i>), and water tupelo (<i>Nyssa aquatica</i>) after juvenile volancy. At the second-order spatial scale (i.e., home range within a region), roosting …

Northern long-eared bat day roost ecology and novel bat sampling techniques in the mid-Atlantic
… where little is known about their summertime day-roost habitat needs. More broadly for the species, little research has examined the day-roost habitat use of both male and females. This information is vital to inform management and policy for the conservation of this endangered species. In …
