Small mammals were trapped on four habitats; cropland, roadside ditch, pasture, and remnant grassland. The small mammal community of each of these habitats were compared on the basis of richness, evenness, diversity, and similarity. The cropland...
Invasion by nonnative plants is particularly prevalent in wetlands. While the ecological patterns in wetland plants are well known, it is less well known how flooding-related soil conditions influence the physiological success of introduced species...
The purpose of this problem was to gather information on food habits of migratory water fowl using Cheyenne Bottoms Waterfowl Refuge, and to determine the most important duck-food species. Ducks were examined as hunters checked through the...
The objectives of this study were threefold: 1) to determine whether buntings prefer cultivated areas or native grassland for nest sites; 2) to determine whether nests destroyed by agricultural practices result in renesting in "safer" habitats...
Seven habitats were sampled from March through October 1991. Five study sites (alfalfa, grain sorghum, winter wheat, corn, and soybean) represented the principal agricultural crop types of Kansas. The remaining two study sites, a fencerow bordered...
The small mammal populations of fencerows and crop field borders were sampled in an agricultural-grassland mosaic of west-central Kansas. Farming is a dryland, 3-year rotation of wheat, grain sorghum, and fallow. Two sites were sampled, one on the...
Small mammal populations in cropland in Ellis County, Kansas, were studied throughout the three year dry-land farming rotation of winter wheat, grain sorghum, and summer fallow commonly practiced in that area. Small mammal populations in the...
Populations of small mammals were studied in the wheat/grain sorghum rotation agro- system in west-central Kansas. Two areas, each representing a different phase of the crop rotation cycle, were live-trapped. Diversity, evenness, richness, and...
The study area, having a total of 434 acres, was placed in the "Soil Bank" in 1958.
A sorghum cover crop was seeded in spring of 1959 and the area was seeded to grass on November 25, 1959.
Rate and mixture of seeded grasses were as follows: three...
