Wireless digital camera traps

Wireless digital camera traps are providing unprecedented and detailed information on some of JRBP's big unknowns, such as the abundance and behavior of large predators and the nature of biological corridors linking JRBP to other areas.

Acoustical monitoring and environmental correlates of bat activity

Since 2001, an acoustical monitoring station at the edge of Searsville Lake has recorded over ten million bat calls. These are calls emitted by bats during foraging to aid them in locating and capturing prey, and also emitted during other kinds of activity.

Past

Camera-trap monitoring of mammals

The consequences of mammal activity are nearly ubiquitous at JRBP; they include distinctive browse lines on vegetation, animal trails and tracks, scat, dens, and carcasses.

Past

Control of yellow starthistle by herbivory

This project aims to test whether and how herbivory by slugs and snails controls yellow starthistle (Centaurea solstitialis)populations. It consists of pairs of self-contained starthistle gardens in 20 locations around JRBP.

Past

Nitrogenous air pollutant monitoring

Several nitrogen-containing compounds are released to the atmosphere by human activities such as driving automobiles and generating electric power. Ultimately these compounds are deposited on land or water, either in a dry form or carried by rain or fog.
