White-tailed deer and sharp-tailed grouse data used in constrained generalized additive models to enhance survival analyses and incorporate ecological theory Grouse: These data on sharp-tailed grouse survival times are provided for individuals wanting to run an age-period survival analysis. Entry and exit times are expressed in integer days from the start of the study. Entry age and exit age expressed in integer days are also included. Data are structured to implement survival analysis. White-tailed Deer: These data on white-tailed deer survival times are provided for individuals wanting to run an age-period survival analysis. Entry and exit times are expressed in integer weeks from the start of the study. Entry age and exit age expressed in integer weeks are also included. Data are structured to implement survival analysis. Only adult female individuals that were chronic-wasting...

We gathered this group of 15 participants with diverse expertise who had previously studied SCTLD including at universities and various government agencies as microbiologists, pathologists, disease ecologists, population ecologists, and coral experts. Participants represented marine disease experts in Florida, Hawaii, South Carolina, and the US Virgin Islands. We then used a rapid prototyping approach (Runge and Converse, 2017) to elicit, structure, and evaluate existing knowledge regarding the etiology of SCTLD. Our approach began with eliciting hypotheses about...

Pd was harvested from starting cultures grown of MEA agar at 7˚C for 60 days. Harvested conidia were diluted in Phosphate Buffered Saline + Tween20 and spread onto plates of a given medium. Plate were then incubated at either 24, 30 or 37˚C. Plates were incubated for 1, 5, 9, 15, 30, 60, 90, 120, or 150 days before being transferred to a 7˚C incubator for 50 days. Colony forming units (CFUs) of Pd were then enumerated,...

Pd is the fungus that is the causative agent of white-nose syndrome.

Data are reported on the county level. Locations are accurate to county only. We used data collected at winter locations only (hibernaculum) for this data set.

These times are used in a time-to-event analysis that employs a mixture model approach to characterize transition rates between states.
