Impacts of climate change and renewable energy development on habitat of an endemic squirrel, Xerospermophilus mohavensis, in the Mojave Desert, USA accepted in Biological Conservation

Our paper "Impacts of climate change and renewable energy development on habitat of an endemic squirrel, Xerospermophilus mohavensis, in the Mojave Desert, USA" has been accepted in Biological Conservation!  This is the third Mohave ground squirrel paper of ours that has been recently accepted.  The other two are:

Inman, RD, TC Esque, KE Nussear, P Leitner, MD Matocq, PJ Weisberg, TE Dilts,and AG Vandergast. 2013. Is there room for all of us? Renewable energy and Xerospermophilus mohavensis. Endangered Species Research 20:1-20.

and

Dilts, T., P. Weisberg, P. Leitner, M. Matocq, R. Inman, K. Nussear, and T. Esque. In Review. Multi-scale connectivity and graph theory highlight critical areas for conservation under climate change. Ecological Applications.

 This paper examines climate change effects on Mohave ground squirrel habitat, but also includes realistic dispersal scenarios to understand which portions of the range are most likely to be colonized.

Congratulation Rich Inman on a job well done.
