A random sampling of salt marsh harvest mice in a muted tidal marsh

Article Abstract:

Research indicates that natural tides are crucial to preserving wildlife habitat for the endangered salt marsh harvest mice populating the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge in California. Tides provide infusions of fresh sea water necessary to maintain salinity needed for pickleweed, a microhabitat requirement for the mouse.

Spatial dynamics of source-sink habitats: effects on rare grassland birds

Article Abstract:

Research on bird populations in central Florida emphasize the negative impact of grassland habitat fragmentation. Bachman's sparrow and the Florida grasshopper sparrow are used as illustration. Implications for wildlife habitat improvement are discussed.
