(2010-01-07)
We examined home range habitat composition and preferred habitats within home ranges for Northern bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus) broods during the breeding seasons (April 1 – October 31) of 2003 – 2006 on Sehoy ...
Assessing Nature-based Recreation Demand in Population Cores of the Southeastern US: The Outlook for Recreation Development on Private Lands
(2010-08-20)
This study was conducted to meet a need for empirical assessment of outdoor recreation demand specific to non-industrial private lands in the southeastern United States. The survey was designed to measure preferences, ...
Genetic Analysis of Dispersal and Population Dynamics of the Southeastern Coyote (Canis latrans)
(2010-05-13)
Two different types of genetic analyses, phylogeography and population genetics, were completed on coyotes (Canis latrans) across the Central Plains, Midwestern, and Southeastern United States. The first goal of this study ...
The Relationships Between Wildlife Openings and Avian Use and Abundance in the East Gulf Coastal Plain
(2010-08-17)
Wildlife openings are forest openings created predominately for game species. Many bird species, some of which are exhibiting population declines, utilize openings during the breeding season. Openings can vary in size, ...

Modeling impact of Land Use/ Cover changes on Water Quality and Quantity of Fish River Watershed
(2010-07-13)
Hydrologic and water quality models are widely used for assessing the impacts of land use/cover (LULC) changes on water quality and quantity. However, their credibility for predicting LULC change impacts has not been tested ...
Assessing the Potential Utility of Select State-owned Lands for Vertebrate Conservation
(2010-12-17)
With limited resources available for conservation, it is imperative that efficient state conservation plans be developed to protect species of greatest conservation need (GCN species). Through the Inventory and Conservation ...
Spatial and Temporal Trends and the Role of Land Use/Cover on Water Quality and Hydrology in the Fish River Watershed
(2010-12-17)
This study focuses on exploring linkages between land use/cover (LULC) and water quality/quantity at both spatial and temporal scales in the Fish River watershed. The Fish River, in coastal Alabama, is of critical importance ...
Modeling Hydrologic and Water Quality Responses to Changing Climate and Land Use/Cover in the Wolf Bay Watershed, South Alabama
(2010-11-17)
