SUMMARY:Factors Influencing Seasonal Migrations of Pronghorn Across the Northern Sagebrush Steppe
DESCRIPTION:Date and Time: Sept 14\, 2016   12-1 pm Mountain / 11 am -12 pm Pacific\nHosts: Great Northern and Plains and Prairie Potholes Landscape Conservation Cooperatives\nSpeaker: Andrew Jakes\, University of Montana \nGlobally\, grassland systems have received the highest impacts from human activities\, and therefore management of these systems is important for ungulate conservation. Pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) may undertake seasonal migrations to satisfy annual life history requirements. The effects from environmental gradients and anthropogenic factors on pronghorn migrations are not well understood. \nThis webinar will provide an overview of the study that addresses these objectives: \n\nClassify and determine metrics for migration behaviors across individuals in the Northern Sagebrush Steppe (NSS);\nPredict multi-scale seasonal pronghorn migration pathways across the NSS and integrate scales into one map and;\nCreate pronghorn connectivity network maps for the region.\n\nBecause pronghorn are well distributed across the landscape\, move and operate at large landscape scales\, are sensitive to both environmental and anthropogenic pressures and are highly regarded in public perception\, I suggest that the pronghorn is a focal species useful for conservation planning across the NSS.

SUMMARY:Spacially Explicit Capture-Recapture (SECR) Modeling
DESCRIPTION:SECR is used for estimating animal population density and related parameters. The method combines a spatial population model and a spatial (distance-dependent) detection model. It has been used extensively for the analysis of data from DNA hair snags\, automatic cameras\, and conventional traps. \nThe main aim of this 3-day course is to give participants a practical understanding of SECR and its limitations through the experience of fitting models with the R package ‘secr’. Topics to be covered include: \n\n    Concepts and assumptions underlying SECR\n    Data preparation and checking\n    Model fitting and evaluation\n    Study design\n\nAdvanced topics will be included as requested. These may include model robustness\, linear habitats\, modelling spatial and temporal trend\, mark-resight methods\, reciprocal variation of home-range size and density\, and non-Euclidean distance metrics. \nOur Instructor \nThe workshop would be led by Murray Efford of the University of Otago\, Dunedin\, New Zealand. Murray has taught courses with CMI in the past\,  he plans to visit Canada this summer from his home in New Zealand and so we’ve been able to book him for this great opportunity. \nDr. Murray Efford is a population ecologist with long experience in live-trapping studies. He has recently focused on developing spatially explicit capture–recapture methods and acoustic methods for assessing bird populatio \nWho Should Attend? \nThis course is intended for field biologists who collect and analyse capture-recapture data\, and for statisticians who assist with such analysis. Participants should have some experience of capture–recapture methods and be confident users of “R.” \nRegistration \nCourse fee is $575.00\nMore information about this course and registration are available here

SUMMARY:Fish Identification Course
DESCRIPTION:Start Date: May 10\, 2016\nEnd Date: May 11\, 2016\nTime: 9:30 am\nCity: Castlegar\, BC\nVenue: Selkirk College\nInstructor: Eric B. (Rick) Talor\nCourse fee: $200\n\nSee Registration page HERE.  Register early as a maximum of 20 students may attend. \nCourse Description\nThe fresh waters of the world house spectacular diversity of freshwater fishes\, accounting for over 40% of all described taxa in less than 0.01% of aquatic habitat by surface area. British Columbia has a relatively small number of described native species (69)\, yet contains a considerable wealth of un-described diversity and endemic species. This course serves as an introduction to the biogeography\, evolution\, and identification of native and introduced freshwater fishes found in British Columbia. Two lecture sessions focus on the biogeography\, evolution of our fauna\, as well as the morphological and molecular genetic techniques used in fish identification. Two afternoons focus on morphological-based identification of fishes\, particularly those of the southern Interior of BC. Attendees will also have the chance to try out a new pictorial guide to the freshwater fishes of BC.

SUMMARY:Computer Modelling Workshops during the Predator-Prey conference
DESCRIPTION:Bruce McLellan:  Population modeling in EXCEL (and POPTOOLS) for the mathophobe \nEXCEL can be used to build mechanistic population models that are simple and understandable. Additions to these models that may make the modeller think realism is increased can easily be added. The EXCEL add on POPTOOLS enables many additions to simple models such as drawing vital rates from real data using random case selection with or without replacement (bootstrapping) while estimating many population parameters such as rate of increase\, elasticity\, and sensitivity. In this workshop we will build simple population models\, predator prey models\, and run Monte Carlo analyses. A basic understanding of EXCEL such as what the dollar sign does\, is all that is needed.  Bruce’s workshop will be based on how the demographic rates of Grizzly bears were estimated from the Flathead River (see attached paper) \nIan Hatter:  Predator-Prey modeling in EXCEL \nThis workshop will review a predator-prey (wolf-ungulate) model\, known as PredPrey\, that was developed in Alaska to run in Microsoft EXCEL. The model was developed by Mark McNay and Robert Delong from the Alaska Department of Fish and Game to assist wildlife biologists with making management decisions related to harvesting of wolves and ungulate populations. The effects of management on both wolves and their primary prey can be modelled. Some modifications to the model may be provided at the workshop to make it more suitable for gaming different management scenarios. \nRob Serrouya: Testing Theory with Data \nRob will show two different ways to model predator-prey systems – One using an ordinary differential equation and the second using a difference equation (sometimes called a recurrence relation). The ODE will be based on this paper\, where the strength and dynamics of apparent competition are modeled\, whereas the difference equation will be based on this paper\, where the effect of predation is evaluated based on theoretical relationships (e.g.\, whether predation is density dependent\, independent\, or depensatory). R codes can be downloaded now from the journal articles\, or email Rob for the code. The difference equation can and will also be modeled in Excel. (See attached paper) \nRegistration\nYou are able to choose one out of the three workshops listed above. Workshop fee is $60.00. \nRegister here \nNOTE: if you are attending the Predator Prey Dynamics conference\, you should register for this workshop via the conference registration process.

SUMMARY:Predator-Prey Dynamics Conference
DESCRIPTION:Predator-Prey Dynamics: From Theory to Management conference\nPredation is one of the most fundamental interactions in ecology because it is a primary mechanism of energy transfer among trophic levels. The effects of predation on prey populations are continually debated in the literature\, even within a specific study system. Is predation compensatory (i.e. animals would have died anyway\, were they not eaten)\, is it limiting (does it reduce the number of prey)\, or even regulating (is it dependent on the density of prey)? And how do we integrate new ideas\, such as non-lethal effects of predation\, with the more classical view of predation? An upcoming Columbia Mountains Institute conference will address these questions and others. It will be an excellent opportunity for scientists\, managers\, students\, hunters\, and guide-outfitters to learn about some of the current thinking on predator-prey interactions for mammals and birds. \nThe conference will include speakers and a poster session addressing terrestrial predator-prey systems as well as a training workshop\, where participants can learn how to build and run basic predator-prey models (e.g.\, using Excel or R). Real world examples from the Kootenays and elsewhere in North America will be presented. \nMore Information

SUMMARY:Webinar: Inter-LCC Greater Sage-grouse Research Projects: Results and Applications to Inform Landscape-scale Management
DESCRIPTION:In 2012\, Region 6 of the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) obtained Inter-LCC Science Funding to support original research and development of decision support tools to further landscape-scale conservation of Greater sage-grouse within and across the four Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCC) comprising the birds’ range. USFWS partnered with Western Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (WAFWA) to deliver this program. WAFWA convened a panel of LCC\, state\, and university experts in sage-grouse and sagebrush systems that facilitated the research proposal process to fund the highest priority projects. In this webinar\, principal investigators funded through this effort will present project results\, discuss availability of underlying data or model outputs\, and current and potential application of findings. \nThe projects and presenters are: \n\nModerator: Dr. Tom Remington\, Western Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies\nSage-Grouse Hate Trees: A Range-wide Solution for Increasing Bird Benefits Through Accelerated Conifer Removal – Dr. Michael Falkowski\, Colorado State University \nDesigning Regional Fuel Breaks to Protect Large Remnant Tracts of Sage-Grouse Habitat in Nevada\, Idaho\, Oregon\, and Utah – Dr. Louis Provencher\, The Nature Conservancy \nAnnual Grass Cover Mapping for Greater Sage-Grouse Conservation – Dr. Collin Homer\, USGS\, Center for Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS)\nAnalysis of Greater Sage-Grouse Lek Data: Trends in Peak Male Counts 1965-2015 – Ryan Nielson\, Western EcoSystems Technology \nRange-wide Sampling Design for Population Size and Trend Estimation in Greater Sage-Grouse – Dr. Paul Lukacs\, University of Montana

SUMMARY:Webinar: Green Teachers
DESCRIPTION:REMOTE CAMERAS IN ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION\nPresenters: Ryan Pennesi and Dawn Tanner \nWednesday\, February 10 2016 7:30-8:30pm EST \nRegister \nYoung people do not realize there are so many interesting things that they can learn about animals in their own schoolyard and neighborhood. Using remote cameras helps teachers to increase technology learning in their classrooms and brings students outside to create meaningful connections. Whether you think small scale at what your students will learn about the animals that share their space when they are absent or you choose to connect with local scientists\, setting up trail cameras will give you a window into the wild. Join Ryan and Dawn in discussion as they address choosing the best locations to place the cameras\, how to set them up and what can be done both inside and outside of the classroom with the resulting images and data. \nRyan Pennesi is a Mentor Naturalist at the Wolf Ridge Environmental Learning Center in Finland\, Minnesota. After studying wildlife conservation at the University of Massachusetts Amherst\, he worked as a crew leader with the Vermont Youth Conservation Corps and as an environmental educator with the Student Conservation Association in Western Massachusetts. \nDawn Tanner is a PhD candidate in the Conservation Biology Program at the University of Minnesota. Working in collaboration with the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (MN Project WILD)\, Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve\, Afton-Lakeland Elementary\, and Afton State Park\, she created the Taking Action Opportunities (TAO) curriculum that makes use of remote cameras for environmental education.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Completing the Loop - Combining Occupancy Modeling\, Crowd-sourcing\, and eDNA Sampling to Inventory Bull Trout Across their U.S. range
DESCRIPTION:Date and Time: Feb 10\, 2016  12 pm Mountain / 11 am Pacific\nPresenter: Mike Young\, USFS Rocky Mountain Research Station\nCo-authors: Dabn Isaak\, Kevin McKelvey\, Michael Schwartz\, Kellie Carim\, Wade Fredenberg\, Taylor Wilcox\, Matt Groce\, Dave Nagel\, Dona Horan\, and Sherry Wollrab \nInterest in using environmental DNA (eDNA) sampling to monitor aquatic species is exploding. This technique makes it possible to conduct rapid and cost-effective broad-scale species assessment and monitoring\, particularly when informed by robust species distribution models. Here\, we provide preliminary results from an effort to identify habitats occupied by juvenile bull trout in all 4th-code basins constituting their historical U.S. range. \nWe developed a sampling template based on 1) the probability of habitat occupancy by juvenile bull trout from the Climate Shield model and 2) simulated and empirically tested probabilities of eDNA-based detection of stream-dwelling salmonids. A cadre of state\, tribal\, federal\, and NGO biologists collected the samples\, supported by equipment and analyses provided by the National Genomics Center for Wildlife and Fish Conservation. Those analyses confirmed many expectations and refuted others about habitat occupancy by bull trout\, and are forming the basis for immediate action by managers. The data also constitute the foundation for building better occupancy models for juvenile bull trout\, which will be fundamental to understanding where this species will persist during the 21st century. \nAbout the presenter:  Michael Young is a research fisheries biologist with the Rocky Mountain Research Station’s Air\, Water\, and Aquatic Environments Program and National Genomics Center for Wildlife and Fish Conservation. His research focuses on the ecology\, evolution\, and conservation of freshwater species in western North America. \nWebinar space is limited to 100 people.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Predicting Future Conflicts Between Roads and Wildlife Connectivity
DESCRIPTION:Date and Time: June 3 2015  12-1 pm Mountain / 11am-12pm Pacific \nPresenters: Pat McGowen\, Western Transportation Institute\, Montana State University (WTI); Meredith McClure\, Center for Large Landscape Conservation (CLLC); Cameron Ellis\, Sonoran Institute; Rob Ament\, WTI and CLLC \nIn this project\, the Sonoran Institute\, Center for Large Landscape Conservation\, Montana State University’s Western Transportation Institute (WTI) and Future West investigated the potential impacts of future housing development on transportation to determine where increased traffic volumes will most likely impact connectivity for carnivores. The focus of this pilot study was Flathead and Lincoln counties in northwestern Montana. The results focus on mitigation for rarer species like bears and wolverines; it does not address or use data from road kill “hot spots” which are primarily deer and other common ungulates. \nThis effort is unique in that it projects development into the future and identifies potential problem sites before the impacts arrive. With foresight and collaborative efforts\, the impacts of future development can be mitigated to maintain habitat connectivity within the study area. The researchers seek to inform the long range plans (5-20 year time horizons) of county\, state transportation\, wildlife\, and federal land management agencies to incorporate wildlife’s impending needs. \nProject resource: Highway Mitigation For Wildlife In Northwest Montana \nRegister for the webinar here.
