Sea‐level rise will affect coastal species worldwide, but models that aim to predict these
effects are typically based on simple measures of sea level that do not capture its inherent …

Conservation resources are limited and need to be used where they can be most effective.
Deciding where within a species range to implement conservation interventions requires …

If individuals can perceive and manage risks, they may alter their behaviors based on prior
experience. This expectation may apply to nest site selection of breeding birds, for which …

The balance of abiotic and biotic stressors experienced by a species likely varies across its
range, resulting in spatially heterogeneous limitations on the species' demographic rates …

Salt marshes in the northeastern United States provide critical breeding habitat for tidal
marsh specialist birds like the Ammospiza caudacuta (Saltmarsh Sparrow). The Ammospiza …

Determining factors that shape a species' population genetic structure is beneficial for
identifying effective conservation practices. We assessed population structure and genetic …

Demographic rates are rarely estimated over an entire species range, limiting empirical tests
of ecological patterns and theories, and raising questions about the representativeness of …

Abstract Globally limited to 45,000 km2, salt marshes and their endemic species are
threatened by numerous anthropogenic influences, including sea-level rise and predator …

Transposable elements (TE) play critical roles in shaping genome evolution. Highly
repetitive TE sequences are also a major source of assembly gaps making it difficult to fully …

Abstract Changes in the frequency and severity of extreme weather may introduce new
threats to species that are already under stress from gradual habitat loss and climate …
