Natural history and community science records confirm rapid geographic shifts in the distribution of Bachman's Sparrow (Peucaea aestivalis) since 1850
<p>North American grassland birds colonized emerging habitat created by expanding agriculture in a pattern of eastward expansions from the mid-1800s to mid-1900s. These birds have been declining, since at least the mid1900s, largely as result of anthropogenic landscape change. Only one bird that now breeds predominantly in southeastern pine savannas is thought to have experienced a concurrent range expansion into this region: <em>Peucaea aestivalis </em>(Bachman's Sparrow). However, our understanding of the <em>P. aestivalis</em> expansion, and subsequent retraction to the southeastern United States, is largely based on a contemporaneous review of only a subset of historical records from beyond its modern, northern limit. We suggest an alternative explanation for these historical records is that <em>P. aestivalis</em> historically occurred more broadly than was recognized in contemporaneous literature. To evaluate these hypotheses, we reviewed field observations from literature, natural history collections, and eBird to show how <em>P. aestivalis </em>presence throughout eastern North America has shifted since the mid-1800s. To confirm that these findings were not the result of detection bias, we repeated our analysis on a common sparrow species (<em>Spizella pusilla</em>) with a largely overlapping breeding range, but no history of expansion and retraction. We confirm that <em>P. aestivalis</em> expanded its range, but add that prior to that expansion, its historical distribution was broader than commonly acknowledged today. As a result, we identify the northwestern historical limit of <em>P. aestivalis</em>, the Ouachita and Ozark highlands, as a potential source region for an eastward expansion that is consistent with those of other North American grassland birds of the era. We discuss the potential evolutionary and conservation implications of this range expansion on <em>P. aestivalis</em> given our more nuanced understanding of it. Anthropogenic landscape change initially provided additional habitat for <em>P. aestivalis</em> but has ultimately resulted in a reduction of the <em>P. aestivalis</em> distribution.</p>
Co-curricular Quantitative Data Analytics Training Program (CQDATP) for Undergraduate Natural Science Students
<p>While data analytics has increasingly become an essential skill for various professionals in natural science fields, college curricula often cannot be updated frequently to meet the emerging changes of the workforce’s needs. A drastic curricular change is particularly difficult at small colleges with limited availability of faculty. This study proposes a co-curricular training program that enables natural science students to master skills of applying quantitative data analytics on real datasets without requiring a significant curricular change. The training program was developed and implemented as a sequence of in-person one-hour training sessions at a small four-year college. The results show that the approach is effective in improving students’ data analytics skills. This program can be adapted by other small institutions to achieve similar goals.</p> <p> </p> <p>This dataset include the training materials and deidentified student performance and survey responses. </p>
