We investigated the previously unstudied effects of selection cutting on the abundance and fer[...]

Jean-Francois Poulin, Auteur ; Marc-Andre Villard, Auteur ; Mattias Edman, Auteur ; Pierre J. Goulet, Auteur ; Anna-Maria Eriksson, AuteurMany bird species respond to forestry, even at moderate intensities. In New Brunswick, Canada, the Brown Creeper exhibits a negative, threshold response to harvesting intensity. This study aimed to determine whether (a) the threshold found in Br[...]
