Adaptive Harvest Management and Harvest Mortality of Greater Prairie-Chickens -- Index -- Studies in Avian BiologyGrouse-an ecologically important group of birds that include capercaillie, prairie chickens, and ptarmigan-are distributed throughout the forests, grasslands, and tundra of Europe, Asia, and North America. Today, many grouse populations are in decline, and the conservation and management of these charismatic birds is becoming a global concern. This volume summarizes current knowledge of grouse biology in 25 chapters contributed by 80 researchers from field studies around the world. Organized in four sections-Spatial Ecology, Habitat Relationships, Population Biology, and Conservation and Management-the chapters offer important insights into spatial requirements, movements, and demography of grouse. Much of the research employs emerging tools in ecology that span biogeochemistry, molecular genetics, endocrinology, radio-telemetry, and remote sensing. The chapters explore topics including the impacts of climate change, energy development, and harvest, and give new evidence for life-history changes in response to human activities.Studies in avian biology ;no. 39.GrouseEcologyGrouseConservationasian birds.avian biology.biogeochemistry.bird conservation and management.bird ecology.bird watcher books.ecology books.endangered birds.endangered species.environment protection.european birds.global warming.going green.habitat relationships.human activities and environment.life sciences.molecular genetics.north american birds.ornithologist books.ornithology books.population biology.prairie chickens.spatial ecology.species and climate change.species conservation.zoology and ecology.GrouseEcology.GrouseConservation.598.6/3Sandercock Brett K(Brett Kevin),1966-1526861Martin Kathy(Katherine),1949-1247016Segelbacher Gernot1526862MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910781442803321Ecology, conservation, and management of grouse3769242UNINA
