The effects of habitat, climate, and Barred Owls on long-term demography of Northern Spotted Owls

TL;DR: Strong support is found for a negative effect of Barred Owl presence on apparent survival of Spotted Owls in 10 of 11 study areas, but found few strong effects of habitat on survival at the study area scale; however, there was little consistency among areas regarding the relative importance of specific climate covariates.

Scientific evaluation of the status of the Northern Spotted Owl

TL;DR: However, the presence of a Barred Owl effect in this analysis does not differentiate between the hypotheses that Barred Owls are the effect or 2) BO+ sites were of lower habitat quality for Spotted Owls, which experienced inherently lower occupancy than BO sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hierarchical multi‐scale occupancy estimation for monitoring wildlife populations

TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-scale occupancy model was proposed to estimate the probability of detection for two bird species in the Black Hills National Forest. But the model requires repeated surveys of a sample unit, which may violate the closure assumption and result in biased estimates of occupancy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal Ecology and Ecological Energetics of California Spotted Owls

TL;DR: The data support the hypothesis that Spotted Owls prefer old-growth and late seral stage forests because they provide favorable microclimates, and metabolic measurements reveal that Spots have exceptionally low energy requirements.
