  1. BREEDING PRODUCTIVITY, NEST DISTRIBUTION, AND POPULATION ECOLOGY OF WOOD DUCKS IN FLOODPLAIN AND UPLAND FORESTS OF SOUTHERN ILLINOIS

    … During 1993-1998, 179 of 244 radiomarked hens remained on the study area as resident hens. One hundred-four nests were located by following radiomarked hens and 66% of nests were found in upland forests. Nests in the floodplain were initiated earlier than nests in the upland. Thirty-six …

  2. Reproductive Ecology of Ring-Necked Pheasants in Central South Dakota's Winter Wheat Landscape

    … provides an effective environment for nesting hens to avoid predators. The objectives of this study were to determine pheasant use of winter wheat habitats as nesting cover, success rates of nests in winter wheat vs. idle grassland, and brooding potential of winter wheat. During the winters of …

  3. Reproductive Success and Brood Habitat Use of Greater Prairie Chickens and Sharp-Tailed Grouse on the Fort Pierre National Grassland of Central South Dakota

    … where their populations have remained stable. Survival, reproduction and habitat use data from these populations provide insight to important variables contributing to the dynamics and management of the populations on the Fort Pierre National Grassland (FPNG). Additionally, these data may shed …

  4. Habitat selection and nesting ecology of translocated Greater Sage-grouse

    … movements between nesting and non-nesting hens and the extent to which nest success is affected by anthropogenic features. I also identified habitat that translocated sage-grouse select in relation to anthropogenic and natural features. My research documented some of the largest …

    … a major focus of research. However, low juvenile survival and recruitment has also been implicated as a potential driver in sage-grouse population declines.Nutritional requirements of juvenile sage-grouse combined with the desiccation of key food plants in shrub communities push sage-grouse in the …

  6. Nesting and Brood-Rearing Habitat Selection of Greater Sage-Grouse and Associated Survival of Hens and Broods at the Edge of Their Historic Distribution

    … objectives of this study were to estimate nest survival, hen and brood survival, and associated nest and brood-site habitat selection of sage-grouse in southwestern North Dakota. The study was conducted during the spring and summer of 2005 and 2006 in Bowman County, North Dakota. Nest-sites were …
