Nest cavity availability and selection in aspenconifer groves in a grassland landscape (2004, background): “As well, many cavity nesters forage extensively on dead trees (Imbeau and Desrochers 2002).”
Small mammal responses to coarse woody debris distribution at different spatial scales in managed and unmanaged boreal forests (2012, background): “, 2010), amphibians (Blomquist and Hunter, 2010), birds (Imbeau and Desrochers, 2002; Martin et al., 2004; Drapeau et al., 2009), mammals (Loeb, 1999; Pearce and Venier, 2005), and fish (Ahrenstorff et al.”
Ecological consequences of mountain pine beetle outbreaks for wildlife in western North American forests (2014, background): “…woodpecker specializes more on wood-boring beetle larvae (Cerambycidae) than the American three-toed woodpecker, which specializes on bark beetle larvae (Scolytidae) and strongly associates with beetle-killed forests (Murphy and Lehnhausen 1998, Dixon and Saab 2000, Imbeau and Desrochers 2002).”
Dead wood threshold values for the three-toed woodpecker presence in boreal and sub-alpine forest (2004, background): “Several authors have demonstrated that three-toed woodpeckers forage on dying and dead trees, and, in particular, on recently dead standing spruce trees (Hogstad, 1970; Hess, 1983; Pechacek, 1995; Murphy and Lehnhausen, 1998; Ruge et al., 1999; Imbeau and Desrochers, 2002).”
