Markov chains are commonly used to model succession in plant and animal communities. Once fitted to data, these models are typically used to address e...

Spatial management of invasive species is more likely to be successful when multiple locations are treated simultaneously. However, selecting the best...

1. Managers must determine which interventions best protect threatened species when the outcomes of interventions are uncertain. Adaptive management i...

Multistate capture-recapture models are frequently used to estimate the survival and state transition parameters needed to parameterize stage-structur...

Successful conservation of ecosystems exhibiting alternative stable states requires tools to accurately classify states and quantify state transition ...

The colonization of suitable yet unoccupied habitat due to natural dispersal or human introduction can benefit recovery of threatened species. Predict...

Amphibian populations are undergoing worldwide declines, and high-elevation, range-restricted amphibian species may be particularly vulnerable to envi...

When the conditions encountered by a migratory species are highly variable, the timing of migration and migrant condition are critical to survival. Sp...

Assessing spatial distributions of threatened large carnivores at landscape scales poses formidable challenges because of their rarity and elusiveness...

Failing to account for uncertainty in the detection of invasive plants may lead to inefficient management strategies and wasted resources. Smart strat...
