Fatalities of migratory bats, many of which use low frequency (< 35 kHz; LowF) echolocation
calls, have become a primary environmental concern associated with wind energy …

Why do some restored ecosystems persist for centuries while others are quickly converted to
alternative land uses or land covers? We propose that restored ecosystems have a temporal …

The northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) was listed as threatened under the
