Playbacks of mobbing calls of black-capped chickadees as a method to estimate reproductive activity of forest birds
TL;DR: Black-throated Blue Warblers and Ovenbirds had a reproductive index consistent with their true nesting success as derived from intensive nest monitoring on the same plots.
Effects of habitat characteristics and interspecific interactions on co-occurrence patterns of saproxylic beetles breeding in tree boles after forest fire: null model analyses
TL;DR: The results suggest that an intimate link between habitat and interspecific interactions can have important roles for community assembly of saproxylic assemblages even following disturbance by fire, and shows that a systematic application of null models can offer insight into the mechanisms behind the assembly of ecological communities.

Habitat requirements of breeding black-backed woodpeckers (Picoides arcticus) in managed, unburned boreal forest
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated home-range characteristics and habitat selection by Black-backed Woodpeckers in an unburned, boreal forest landscape managed by mosaic harvesting in Quebec, Canada.
Saproxylic Beetles in Disturbed Boreal Forests: Temporal Dynamics, Habitat Associations, and Community Structure
TL;DR: While postfire forests are notable for their early-colonizing saproxylic species, their results show that they can also have substantial value for supporting mid-successional species such as Acmaeops pratensis, which is already on European red lists.

Structural retention requirements for a key ecosystem engineer in conifer-dominated stands of a boreal managed landscape in eastern Canada
TL;DR: The mean physical characteristics of trees selected for nesting, nesting habitat selection at two scales (nest tree and nesting stand), and quantitative targets for forest managers to select types and amounts of retention structures that will offer optimal resources to cavity nesting birds and dead wood associated species in managed boreal landscapes are described.
