Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping evaporative water loss in desert passerines reveals an expanding threat of lethal dehydration.
Thomas P. Albright,Dennis Mutiibwa,Dennis Mutiibwa,Alexander R. Gerson,Alexander R. Gerson,Eric Krabbe Smith,William A. Talbot,Jacqueline O'Neill,Andrew E. McKechnie,Blair O. Wolf +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that songbirds in the deserts of the southwestern United States are increasingly susceptible to death from dehydration on hot days, and that, by the end of the present century, exposure to potentially lethal conditions could at least quadruple for smaller species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Land Surface Temperature and Surface Air Temperature in Complex Terrain
TL;DR: The relation between LST and Tair was found to be strongest during late summer and fall, and weakest during winter and early spring, and the relationship did not differ significantly across the two distinct mountainous ecoregions of Nevada.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of downscaled, gridded climate data for the conterminous United States.
Robert J. Behnke,Stephen J. Vavrus,Andrew J. Allstadt,Thomas P. Albright,Wayne E. Thogmartin,Volker C. Radeloff +5 more
TL;DR: The results highlight the need for careful consideration among different available data sets in terms of which variables they describe best, where they perform best, and their resolution, when selecting a downscaled weather data set for a given ecological application.
Journal Article
The rise and fall of water hyacinth in Lake Victoria and the Kagera River basin, 1989-2001
TL;DR: A combination of factors, including conditions associated with the 1997 to1998 El Nino and biocontrol with water hyacinth weevils, appear to have contributed to a major decline in water Hyacinth in the most affected parts of the lake.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of drought on avian community structure
Thomas P. Albright,Anna M. Pidgeon,Chadwick D. Rittenhouse,Murray K. Clayton,Curtis H. Flather,Patrick D. Culbert,Brian D. Wardlow,Volker C. Radeloff +7 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that drought is capable of imposing sizable shifts in abundance, richness, and composition on avian communities, an important implication of a more climatically variable future.
