Both agricultural land and golf courses represent prevalent forms of land alteration in many
areas, but may offer habitat to some animals in areas of high urbanization. Our …

Turtle assemblages in Oklahoma are potentially interesting because the species pool is a
mixture of eastern and western species, several of which are approaching their longitudinal …

Spatial and temporal scales are important for understanding habitat associations because
organisms have neither unbounded mobility nor perfect knowledge of their environment, but …

Ponds are common in many agricultural landscapes and provide aquatic habitat for wildlife.
Most studies of semi-aquatic turtle assemblages have been conducted in lotic environments …

We investigated the demography of a common aquatic turtle (Chrysemys picta) along a
gradient of urbanization in southeastern New Hampshire. Using a geographic information …

This study covers the home range, population size, habitat type and components of habitat

We studied turtle populations inhabiting a canal and a lake (both man-made) within a
heavily disturbed, urban setting. Six aquatic and semi-aquatic turtle species were collected …

Human-induced degradation of coastal wetlands often leads to altered trophic dynamics and

We examined turtle populations occupying eight artificial ponds in Westmoreland County,
southwestern Pennsylvania, USA. Beginning in 2005, we used sardine-baited hoop-nets to …

Golf courses host some of the only semi-natural aquatic habitats in urban areas. We
