OverviewAI-generated summary
Ethan J. Royal is a postdoctoral fellow whose research investigates the ecological factors influencing animal populations. His work has examined the relationship between landscape and vegetation characteristics and herpetofaunal assemblages in Gulf Coastal Plain pine forests. Royal has also studied how legacy land use predicts occupancy patterns for prairie-associated herpetofauna in Western Arkansas and the effects of prairie degradation and restoration on box turtle thermal ecology. His publications also explore the foraging behaviors of pygmy rattlesnakes in relation to prey species presence, translocation strategies for box turtles in urbanizing landscapes, and the ecology of snake assemblages in coastal Maine. He has also investigated the role of non-native crayfish as prey for native fishing spiders. Royal has a h-index of 3 and has published 9 papers with 20 citations.
