We sampled small mammals in burned and unburned tallgrass prairie by using three sites in each of two contiguous ungrazed experimental fire-reversal treatments during 1999-2010. One of the experimental treatments (001A to R20A) had been burned in spr

Hispid pocket mice (Chaetodipus hispidus) are found from the grasslands of the Great Plains to the deserts of the southwestern United States, but the natural history and ecology of this species have not been described in native tallgrass prairie at t

We have sampled small mammals on the Konza Prairie Biological Station, in eastern Kansas, from autumn 1981 through the present. One part of this effort has involved sampling rodents and shrews on 14 permanent traplines (20 stations, 15-m interstation

We examined whether chronic exposure of traps to disinfectant reduced trappability of rodents as compared to new traps. We tested whether rodents initially chose between treated (disinfected) and new traps and if total number of captures differed bet

Aim We surveyed the empirical literature to determine how well six diversity hypotheses account for spatial patterns in species richness across varying scales of grain and extent. Location Worldwide. Methods We identified 393 analyses (‘cases') in

Climate change is causing measurable changes in rainfall patterns, and will likely cause increases in extreme rainfall events, with uncertain implications for key processes in ecosystem function and carbon cycling. We examined how variation in rainfa

The species-area relationship (SAR) plays a central role in biodiversity re- search, and recent work has increased awareness of its temporal analogue, the species- time relationship (STR). Here we provide evidence for a general species-time-area rela

With the increasing concern about species conservation, a need exists for quantitative characterization of species’ geographic range and their borders. In this paper, we survey tools appropriate for the quantification of static spatial patterns rel

Broad-scale variation in taxonomic richness is strongly correlated with climate. Many mechanisms have been hypothesized to explain these patterns; however, testable predictions that would distinguish among them have rarely been derived. Here, we exam
