With an increasing pressure on forested landscapes, conservation areas may fail to maintain
biodiversity if they are not supported by the surrounding managed forest matrix. Worldwide …

Abstract In the United States, intensively managed forests (IMFs) comprise approximately
9%(27.9 million ha) of total forest area. These forests are primarily in highly productive areas …

Landscape genetics has seen tremendous advances since its introduction, but
parameterization and optimization of resistance surfaces still poses significant challenges …

Climate change has a significant impact on the distribution of species over time. In response,
species may shift, contract, extend or fragment their distributions to track preferred …

Understanding the role of microhabitats in the ecology of plethodontid salamanders is of
utmost importance in the light of recent climate change. Plethodontid species are inherently …

Climate change is facilitating rapid changes in the composition and distribution of vegetation
at northern latitudes, raising questions about the responses of wildlife that rely on arctic …

Understanding patterns of microhabitat use among terrestrial salamanders is important for
predicting their responses to natural and anthropogenic disturbances. The dependence of …

Prescribed fire and timber harvest are anthropogenic disturbances that modify resource
availability and ecosystem structure, and can affect wildlife both directly and indirectly …

Survival is a critical component of individual fitness, population dynamics and the landscape
ecology of organisms. Survival in animal populations is frequently estimated from capture …

Behavioral strategies of natal dispersers in response to human‐altered habitat have far‐
