| Title | Characterizing the morphological complexity of North American beaver (Castor canadensis) habitats using ground-based LiDAR |
| Creator | Wheaton, Joseph M. |
| Description | Beavers (Castor canadensis) are frequently referred to as ‘ecosystem engineers’ in part because of the profound influence their dams and associated networks of dens, side-channels and pools have on habitat heterogeneity and the complexity of the environments they occupy.
