Introduction to the special section- Bat habitat use in eastern North American temperate forests: Site, stand and landscape effects
Article Abstract:
A research on the forest-bat habitat use across the various scales from location across the eastern forest of North America over scales of time, significant for their conservation and management is conducted. The observations indicate that majority of the changeability in the bat habitat use happens at the smaller scale of sites (roost trees) and stands (foraging areas) though this characteristics is not continued across larger-scale watersheds and landscapes.

Presence and absence of bats across habitat scales in the upper coastal plain of South Carolina
Article Abstract:
An active acoustical sampling (Anabat II) survey was carried out to investigate foraging habitat correlation of bats on the Savannah River Site (SRS) in the upper Coastal Plain of South Carolina. Results provide managers better insight for crafting guidelines for bat habitat conservation that could be linked to widely accepted land management and environmental restoration practices for the region.

Effect of habitat and foraging height on bat activity in the coastal plain of South Carolina
Article Abstract:
Bat activity levels in the Coastal Plain of South Carolina are compared among 5 habitat types, forested riparian areas, clear cuts, young pine plantations, mature pine plantations, and pine savannas. The results highlight the importance if riparian areas as foraging habitat for bats in pine-dominated landscapes in the southeastern United States.
