Viability of piping plover Charadrius melodus metapopulations
The metapopulation viability analysis package, vortex, was used to examine viability and recovery objectives for piping plovers Charadrius melodus, an endangered shorebird that breeds in three distinct regions of North America. Baseline models indicate that while Atlantic Coast populations, under current management practices, are at little risk of near-term extinction, Great Plains and Great La...
متن کاملUsing Individual-based Modeling to Explore How Environmental and Anthropogenic Factors Impact Piping Plover Breeding Success
Cohen, Alexander J. M.S., Purdue University, December 2014. Using Individual-based Modeling to Explore How Environmental and Anthropogenic Factors Impact Piping Plover Breeding Success. Major Professor: Patrick A. Zollner. The Piping Plover (Charadrius melodus) is an intensively managed shorebird species which breeds in part along the Atlantic Coast. Major threats to Piping Plovers include habi...
متن کاملFlight initiation distances of nesting Piping Plovers (Charadrius melodus) in response to human disturbance
Birds frequently interact with people when they occur in coupled human-ecological or anthropogenic environments, which makes the protection of legally protected species a challenge. Flight initiation distances (FIDs) are often used to inform development of appropriate buffer distances required for human exclusion zones used to protect birds nesting in anthropogenic landscapes. Piping Plovers (C...
متن کاملReproductive ecology of interior least tern and piping plover in relation to Platte River hydrology and sandbar dynamics
Investigations of breeding ecology of interior least tern (Sternula antillarum athalassos) and piping plover (Charadrius melodus) in the Platte River basin in Nebraska, USA, have embraced the idea that these species are physiologically adapted to begin nesting concurrent with the cessation of spring floods. Low use and productivity on contemporary Platte River sandbars have been attributed to a...
متن کاملSmartphone Technologies and Bayesian Networks to Assess Shorebird Habitat Selection
Understanding patterns of habitat selection across a species’ geographic distribution can be critical for adequately managing populations and planning for habitat loss and related threats. However, studies of habitat selection can be time consuming and expensive over broad spatial scales, and a lack of standardized monitoring targets or methods can impede the generalization of site-based studie...
