Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Populations of the red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis) have experienced massive declines since European colonization of North America. This is due to extensive habitat loss and alteration. Logging of old-growth pine forests and alteration of the fire regime throughout the historic range of the species were the primary causes of population decline. Listing of the red-cockaded woodpecker under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended, and increased emphasis on management of non-game species have resulted in efforts to recover remnant populations of the red-cockaded woodpecker in many parts of its historic range. Due to extensive research and adaptive management initiatives much is now known about the elements required for both short- and long-term management of viable populations of red-cockaded woodpeckers. A short-term strategy is crucial because currently available habitat, in nearly all populations, is poor in 1 or more critical respects. Consequently, almost all populations require immediate attention in the short term, to insure suitable midstory and understory conditions, adequate availability of suitable cavities, and restoration of demographic viability through improvements in number and distribution of breeding groups. Management techniques including artificial cavities, cavity entrance restrictors, translocation of birds, prescribed fire, and mechanical and chemical control of woody vegetation are available to achieve these needs. In the long term, cost-effective management of red-cockaded woodpecker populations requires a timber management program and prescribed fire regime that will produce and maintain the stand structure characteristic of high quality nesting and foraging habitat, so that additional intensive management specific to the woodpeckers is no longer necessary. Timber management that achieves this goal and still allows substantial timber harvest is feasible. The implementation of a red-cockaded woodpecker management strategy, as outlined above, represents appropriate ecosystem management in the fire-maintained pine ecosystems of the southeastern United States and will ultimately benefit a great number of additional species of plants and animals adapted to this ecosystem.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Red-cockaded Woodpecker (Picoides borealis) has been on the endangered species list since 1970. Stable P. borealis populations require older longleaf pine stands that have red heart rot in the older trees, maintained by frequent surface fire that suppress growth of hardwoods. A variety of factors endanger P. borealis with habitat loss. It is now over ten years since publication of the last federal management plan for P. borealis in 2003. Slow recovery and the need to apply recent research make this a good time to evaluate the effectiveness of management. The thesis has two main components. The first component is a literature review on the biology of P. borealis, with the goal of identifying the science required when developing a management plan and a focus on new findings. The second component is an evaluation of the effectiveness of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and state management plans. Each management plan has its own set of rules and regulations to follow, as well as a detailed plan, to meet the goals. Some procedures appear to be more successful than others. The major goal is to recommend changes to management of P. borealis that may enhance recovery. From a species perspective, it appears that the Red-cockaded Woodpecker has increased and many populations are becoming stabilized. However, the species is still endangered because its ideal habitat of older long-leaf pine woodland is largely converted to other habitats for human land use, and by fire suppression. The growth of human population and increasing pressure to subdivide existing blocks of Red-cockaded Woodpecker habitat on private lands represents a big challenge to conservation of the species over the long term. There is still a lot of work that needs to be done in order for the species to be delisted and for there to be a viable and stable populations throughout the species' range.
