Identifying the mechanisms influencing species' distributions is critical for accurate climate change forecasts. However, current approaches are limited by correlative models that cannot distinguish…
Abiotic stress and biotic factors mediate range dynamics on opposing edges

In the face of global change, understanding causes of range limits are one of the most pressing needs in biogeography and ecology. A prevailing hypothesis is that abiotic stress forms cold (upper…
Temporal segregation among sympatric boreal predators
- Environmental ScienceMammal Research

The results suggest that temporal partitioning plays a smaller role in the coexistence of these predators than anticipated, while revealing some interesting trends and suggesting other factors that may play a role in their niche segregation.
Interactive range‐limit theory (iRLT): An extension for predicting range shifts
- Environmental ScienceThe Journal of animal ecology
- 2019
Current thinking on range limits is summarized and an integrative review to evaluate support for iRLT and trophic differences along range margins are performed, suggesting that range‐limit dynamics are more nuanced and interactive than classically predicted by RLT.

Winter habitat use and responses to snow cover of fisher (Martes pennanti) and marten (Martes americana) in southeastern Manitoba
- Environmental Science
- 1983
A trailing study of fisher (Martes pennanti) and marten in the boreal forest of Manitoba showed that both species preferred coniferous ridges and had temporal differences in their habitat use that could be partially explained by their different responses to soft snow cover.
Relations among fishers, snow, and martens: development and evaluation of two hypotheses
- Environmental Science
- 1995
The spatial distribution of mean harvests of fisher and marten were compared to each other, and to snowfall distribution and frequency throughout Maine, 1980–1987, and these questions were examined by analyzing the distributions of fishers and martens.
Female wolverine (Gulo gulo) reproduction: reproductive costs and winter food availability
- Environmental Science, Biology
- 2005
This study addresses how female wolverine (Gulo gulo (L., 1758)) reproduction is limited and tested two complementary hypotheses: (1) current reproduction is affected by the costs of reproduction in the preceding year and (2) current Reproduction isaffected by food availability in the current winter.
Influence of snow depth on prey availability and habitat use by red fox

Fox sinking depths were least in all habitats when crust conditions prevailed, and during these periods travel distances were more evenly distributed among habitats.
