Journal ArticleDOI
Information for patch assessment: a field investigation with black-chinned hummingbirds
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term monitoring and experimental manipulation of a Chihuahuan desert ecosystem near Portal, Arizona (1977-2013).
TL;DR: This dataset includes data previously available through an older data publication and adds 11 years of data that have been used in a variety of publications documenting the effects of the experimental manipulations as well as the response of populations and communities to long-term changes in climate and habitat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Niche opportunities and invasion dynamics in a desert annual community.
Ginger R.H. Allington,David N. Koons,S. K. Morgan Ernest,Michele R. Schutzenhofer,Thomas J. Valone +4 more
TL;DR: It is shown that fluctuations in consumption and resources can create niche opportunities for invaders and the need for additional long-term studies to track the influence of changing climate and community dynamics on invasions is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Foraging under Multiple Costs: The Importance of Predation, Energetic, and Assessment Error Costs to a Desert Forager
Marc D. Meyer,Thomas J. Valone +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that as energetic or predation costs decline, foraging effort rises, which in turn leads to an increase in GUD equality and a reduction in assessment error costs, which emphasize the importance of considering multiple foraging costs and their additive effects in studies of foraging and patch use.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term dynamics of winter and summer annual communities in the Chihuahuan Desert
TL;DR: The difference in long-term community dynamics between the two communities of annual plants are likely due to the differences in total species pool, life history traits, and seasonal climatic regimes.
