Snag density and stand age, but not stand size, explain occupancy and reproduction of an imperiled cavity nester in early successional forest
Many early successional and disturbance-dependent bird species have declined over the past several decades. Cavity-nesting birds in early successional forests are vulnerable because they often require specific habitat characteristics and frequent disturbance events. We examined whether stand age (a...
