2020: Roads as a contributor to landscape-scale variation
in bird communities: "Species
with smaller national populations generally have lower relative abundance with increasing
road exposure, whereas the opposite is true for more common species. Smaller-bodied and
migratory species are also more negatively associated with road exposure. By creating
environmental conditions that benefit generally common species at the expense of others,
road networks may echo other anthropogenic disturbances in bringing about large-scale
simplification of avian communities"
2023: Partial COVID‑19 closure of a national park reveals negative
influence of low‑impact recreation on wildlife spatiotemporal ecology; "We found consistent negative effects of human presence on species, regardless of status as large carnivores, meso-carnivores, or herbivores. Based on best-fitting models, 12 of 14 species used a fewer number of sites in the year that the park was open to recreation (Fig. 2). Declines in use of sites were relatively modest but were 10% or greater for 6 of those 12 species (black bear, coyote, elk, lynx, white- tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), and wolves"
