R code for Demographic consequences of changing environmental periodicity

These R scripts contain the code to replicate the analyses performed in Demographic consequences of changing environmental periodicity , Ecology. Vital-rate estimation We used the demographic data of each species to model periodic differences in vital rates for each life-cycle stage using generalize

Aspen heart rot fungus (<i>Phellinus tremulae</i>) distribution in aspen forests in relation to open meadows: implications for red-naped sapsucker (<i>Sphyrapicus nuchalis</i>) nesting habitat

Red-naped sapsuckers (Sphyrapicus nuchalis) are an integral part of the aspen (Populus tremuloides) ecosystem in the montane western U.S. They are a double keystone species, providing both shelter and nutrients to a variety of organisms within the system. Numerous studies have documented the importa

On the spatial distribution and abundance of herbaceous plants in aspen and conifer forest understories: a test of neutral/statistical versus niche-based theories?

The purpose of this study is to test several macroecological statistical theories in the sub- alpine environment. Statistical theories are based on purely statistical assumptions, and these predictions were tested against measured values for macroecological metrics including the species-abundance di

What determines the distribution of red-naped sapsuckers in the East River Valley?

The conservation of keystone species and their associates is of great importance due to the disproportionately large role they play in community and ecosystem structure. The Red-naped Sapsucker (Sphyrapicus nuchalis) is considered part of an intricate keystone species complex in the aspen forests of

The influence of river regulation and land use on floodplain forest regeneration in the semi‐arid upper Colorado River Basin, USA

AbstractFlow regulation effects on floodplain forests in the semi‐arid western United States are moderately well understood, whereas effects associated with changes in floodplain land use are poorly documented. We mapped land cover patterns from recent aerial photos and applied a classification sche

Living With Beavers

Beaver improve water quality. Their dams hold back water and by slowing down water velocity, they filter out toxins and solid materials. . Beaver restore riparian habitat and stop soil erosion caused by overgrazing, poor water management. Also, by trapping, (traditional ) removal of beaver. Beaver s
