Concepts

Use of infrared technology to measure surface temperatures of objects

Geometric ground formations created by freeze-thaw processes in alpine environments

When populations have not yet adapted to current environmental conditions due to time delays

Period required for sagebrush to recover to pre-fire conditions after burning

The tendency of foragers to maintain a consistent foraging strategy across multiple floral visits rather than switching between different tactics

Safety procedures including isolation, testing, and capacity restrictions to enable field research during pandemic

hypothesis that large animals should follow high quality forage at the leading edge of green-up in the spring
