Abstract: We identified habitat associations of the rare Columbia spotted frog ( Rana luteiventris ). used an information‐theoretic approach that encouraged careful consideration previous studies, demanded a priori formulation hypotheses and models, provided interpretable results while avoiding some criticisms traditional statistical analyses. formulated about based on conductivity, emergent vegetation, littoral zone depth, pond hydrology, water temperature. modeled hypothesized with...
Abstract The escalating climate and wildfire crises have generated worldwide interest in using proactive forest management (e.g. thinning, prescribed fire, cultural burning) to mitigate the risk of wildfire-caused carbon loss forests. To estimate western United States (US) conifer forests, we used a generalizable framework evaluate interactions among hazard exposure vulnerability. By evaluating where high social adaptive capacity for overlaps with most vulnerable loss, identified opportunity...
