Common Raven Activity in Relation to Land use in Western Wyoming: Implications for Greater Sage-Grouse Reproductive Success
Open accessAbstract
Resumen.Los cambios en el paisaje de origen antropogénico pueden favorecer especies generalistas adaptadas a asentamientos humanos, como el cuervo Corvus corax, al proveer nuevos recursos.Luego, el aumento de la densidad de depredadores puede afectar negativamente a las presas, especialmente a las especies de presas raras o sensibles.Jackson Hole y la parte superior del valle del río Green en el oeste de Wyoming están experimentando tasas aceleradas de desarrollo humano debido a emprendimientos turísticos y de gas natural.El aumento de las poblaciones de C. corax en estas áreas puede influenciar de forma negativa a Centrocercus urophasianus, una especie sensible y especialista de matorrales de Artemisia.Investigamos patrones de comportamiento y distribución de Corvus corax a escala de paisaje y la correlación de los cuervos con el éxito reproductivo de Centrocercus urophasianus en el oeste de Wyoming.En nuestra área de estudio, las ciudades proveen alimento, agua y sitios de anidación suplementarios a los cuervos.Esto da como resultado el aumento de las densidades reproductivas locales pero con movimientos aparentemente limitados ( 3 km) por parte de los cuervos desde las ciudades hacia las áreas no desarrolladas de matorrales de Artemisia.La mayor densidad y ocupación de Corvus corax fue observada en tipos de coberturas de suelo con actividades humanas frecuentes.En los matorrales de Artemisia con poca actividad humana, la densidad de cuervos fue levemente elevada cerca de las áreas de incubación y cría de Centrocercus urophasianus, comparada con la densidad esperada y observada en matorrales de Artemisia que no presentan individuos de C. urophasianus.La ocupación de cuervos en las proximidades de las áreas de cría de C. urophasianus tuvo una mejor correlación con el éxito de C. urophasianus que la densidad y el comportamiento de los cuervos.Esto sugiere que la mayor parte de la depredación por parte de los cuervos es realizada por individuos territoriales residentes.El mejoramiento integrado de los matorrales de Artemisia a nivel regional, la remoción de subsidios antropogénicos y quizás también la remoción o condicionamiento por aversión de los cuervos agresivos podrían beneficiar a las poblaciones de C. urophasianus en nuestra área de estudio.

Claims other papers make about this one
Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“The latter possibility would be most likely in cases where territorial adult ravens, which come to closely associate with nearby wolves (Stahler et al., 2002), are the primary predators [e.g., as with desert tortoise (Boarman, 2003) and greater sage grouse (Bui et al., 2010)].”

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“In areas of human development, ravens benefit from anthropogenic subsidies of food, water, and shelter, sometimes leading to artificially heightened raven densities (Boarman, 2003; Bui, Marzluff, & Bedrosian, 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
