Designing a fence that enables free passage of wildlife while containing reintroduced bison: a multispecies evaluation Open
Reintroductions of extirpated species are an important global conservation tool, yet can be challenging for wide‐ranging species. Fences that help anchor reintroduced species to a target area may have deleterious effects on other wildlife.…

Remote Sensing of Understory Plant Phenology: A Framework for Monitoring and Projecting the Impacts of Climate Change Open
Phenology is an integrative environmental science used to examine recurring biological events in nature. The emphasis is in observing recurring plant and animal life cycle stages, especially their timing and relationship with weather and c…
