The Avifauna of Severely Fragmented, Buloke 'Allocasuarina Luehmanni' Woodland in Western Victoria, Australia
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the diversity of birds in the Buloke Allocasuarina luehmanni woodlands, a habitat type that was once widespread in southern Australia but now is restricted to a series of remnants, many of which are located in the Wimmera region of western Victoria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Topographic Determinants of Faunal Nestedness in Great Basin Butterfly Assemblages: Applications to Conservation Planning
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined factors possibly responsible for a nested distributional pattern of resident butterflies in the Toquima Range, a mountain range in the Great Basin of western North America.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resistance and resilience: can the abrupt end of extreme drought reverse avifaunal collapse?

TL;DR: How the avifauna of a highly modified region responded to a 13year drought followed by a two-year period of substantially higher than average rainfall suggests a widespread mechanism is responsible for declines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships among non-native plants, diversity of plants and butterflies, and adequacy of spatial sampling
TL;DR: The results suggest that relatively limited data sets may allow us to draw reliable inferences about biological responses to pattern-based and process-based variables that are affected by restoration actions in the context of ecological restoration and rehabilitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fire, livestock grazing, topography, and precipitation affect occurrence and prevalence of cheatgrass ( Bromus tectorum ) in the central Great Basin, USA
Matthew A. Williamson,Matthew A. Williamson,Erica Fleishman,Erica Fleishman,Ralph Charles Mac Nally,Ralph Charles Mac Nally,Jeanne C. Chambers,Bethany A. Bradley,David S. Dobkin,David I. Board,Frank A. Fogarty,Ned Horning,Matthias Leu,Martha Wohlfeil Zillig +13 more
TL;DR: No support is provided for the notion that contemporary grazing regimes or grazing in conjunction with fire can suppress cheatgrass, and time-series data and results indicate that grazing corresponds with increased cheatgrass occurrence and prevalence regardless of variation in climate, topography, or community composition.
