Biologists win national publication award 1xbet online sports betting The Wildlife Society
A team of biologists from 1xbet online sports betting were honored with a national publication award at the annual conference of The Wildlife Society, Oct. 15-19, in Raleigh, North Carolina.
The research team from 1xbet online sports betting included David Haukos, leader of the 1xbet sports betting research,,Ring-necked;Brett Sandercock, professor of biology;Andrew Gregory, 2011 doctoral graduate andassistant professor at Bowling Green State University;Lance McNew, 2010 doctoral graduate andassistant professor at Montana State University; andVirginia Winder, 2013 postdoctoral fellow andassistant professor at Benedictine College.
The team received the 2016 award for Best Articlefor a collaborative research article "Factors affecting female space use in ten populations of prairie chickens" that was published in the open-access journal Ecosphere in September 2015.
The research team investigated patterns of space use and habitat requirements in 10 populations of prairie chickens in five different states in the Great Plains. The movement data were based on systematic tracking of more than 350 individual birds that were marked with very high frequencyradio-transmitters.
The central findings of the collaborative project indicated space requirements of prairie chickens are large, and breeding females prefer to use native prairie habitats near the booming grounds of displaying males. The field study has provided new insights into the movement ecology of prairie chickens that will be used to inform future management and conservation plans for sensitive species of grassland birds.
For more than 75 years, The Wildlife Society has made annual awards for excellence in four publication categories, including Article, Monograph, Edited Book and Book. One publication is recognized in each category and is selected 1xbet online sports betting work published in the last two years.
