Spatially Explicit Demographics of Mojave Desert Tortoises on a Demography Plot in California, USA

Sarah Doyle, Sean M. Murphy, K. Kristina Drake, Todd C. Esque

Obtaining reliable estimates of demographic parameters is critical to effective wildlife conservation and management. Densities of Mojave Desert Tortoises (Gopherus agassizii) were historically derived from capture–mark–recapture surveys on small, often strategically placed demography plots, or demographic study areas, that also provided information …

Spatially explicit capture‐mark‐recapture to evaluate demographic status of the Louisiana black bear

Joseph D. Clark, Heidi L. Adams, Ben C. Augustine, Maria Davidson et autres

Abstract Louisiana black bears ( Ursus americanus luteolus ) occur in semi‐isolated fragments of bottomland hardwood forest in the lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley and were listed as threatened under the United States Endangered Species Act in 1992. A population viability analysis based …

Impacts of traumatic brain injury severity and sex on sleep architecture, duration, and fragmentation

Grant S. Mannino, Tabitha R. F. Green, Sean M. Murphy, Michael R. Sierks et autres

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is frequently associated with acute and chronic disturbances in sleep architecture. However, the extent to which injury severity and biological sex influence post-traumatic sleep patterns remains underexplored in preclinical models. Here, we used a validated, noninvasive piezoelectric monitoring …

Jaguar density estimation in Mexico: The conservation importance of considering home range orientation in spatial capture–recapture

Sean M. Murphy, Víctor H. Luja

Abstract Accurate estimation of population parameters for imperiled wildlife is crucial for effective conservation decision‐making. Population density is commonly used for monitoring imperiled species across space and time, and spatial capture–recapture (SCR) models can produce unbiased density estimates. However, many imperiled species …

Most Random-Encounter-Model Density Estimates in Camera-Based Predator–Prey Studies Are Unreliable

Sean M. Murphy, Benjamin S. Nolan, Felicia C. Chen, Kathleen M. Longshore et autres

Identifying population-level relationships between predators and their prey is often predicated on having reliable population estimates. Camera-trapping is effective for surveying terrestrial wildlife, but many species lack individually unique natural markings that are required for most abundance and density estimation methods. Analytical …

The importance of including both sexes in preclinical sleep studies and analyses

Grant S. Mannino, Tabitha R. F. Green, Sean M. Murphy, Kevin D. Donohue et autres

A significant effort in biomedical sciences has been made to examine relationships between sex and the mechanisms underlying various disease states and behaviors, including sleep. Here, we investigated biological sex differences in sleep using male and female C57BL/6J mice (n = 267). …

Blood–Brain Barrier Dysfunction Predicts Microglial Activation After Traumatic Brain Injury in Juvenile Rats

Tabitha R. F. Green, Tina Nguyen, Veronika Dunker, D. Ashton et autres

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) disrupts the blood–brain barrier (BBB), which may exacerbate neuroinflammation post-injury. Few translational studies have examined BBB dysfunction and subsequent neuroinflammation post-TBI in juveniles. We hypothesized that BBB dysfunction positively predicts microglial activation and that vulnerability to BBB dysfunction …
