Conservation and spatial use analyses for the recovery of bighorn sheep in the Peninsular Ranges

Creator:: Ostermann, Stacey D.
Abstract:: The status of wild sheep in North America typifies the plight of many wildlife species in modern times: wild sheep have declined to 10-40% of their numbers during pristine times and on a global scale approximately 31% of Caprine are considered threatened or critical. As human populations and the number...

Age-specific and lifetime reproductive success of known age Northern Spotted Owls on four study areas in Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Loschl, Peter J.
Abstract:: Northern Spotted Owls (Strix occidentalis caurina) are a long-lived forest owl and range-wide declines in their numbers have resulted in the species being listed as threatened under the endangered species act. While many studies have been focused on population trends and reproductive performance of Spotted Owls from different age-classes, none...

Daily activity patterns, survival, and movements of red tree voles (Arborimus longicaudus) in western Oregon

Creator:: Swingle, James Kerr
Abstract:: We radiocollared a sample of 61 red tree voles in Douglas County, Oregon and monitored their movements to determine daily, seasonal, and sexual differences in behavior and home range attributes. We also collected information on nest attributes, survival, and dispersal of the radiocollared voles. Individual voles were monitored for periods...

Roosevelt elk habitat use in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Witmer, Gary William
Abstract:: Daily and seasonal habitat use by Roosevelt elk was investigated in the Oregon Coast Range on managed, public forestland. Over 3,700 locations of 6 radio-collared cow elk were recorded during 12 consecutive months. Two elk formed part of a north band and 4 elk were part of a south band....

Ecology of aquatic habitats associated with stream margins

Creator:: Moore, Kelly M. S.
Abstract:: The morphology and ecological importance of habitats associated with the margin of third-order stream channels in the Oregon Cascades were studied in streams in three different riparian types: 450-year-old conifers, 40-year-old alder, and an open, herbaceous-dominated clearcut. Margins, backwaters, and side channels in streams create important habitat for fry of...

Factors affecting colony size, reproductive success, and foraging patterns of double-crested cormorants nesting on East Sand Island in the Columbia River Estuary

Creator:: Anderson, Cynthia D.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate the primary factors affecting colony size, reproductive success, and foraging patterns of Double-crested Cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus albociliatus) nesting at East Sand Island in the Columbia River estuary, the largest colony of this species on the Pacific Coast of North America. This colony...

Improving Projections of Tidal Marsh Persistence under Climate Change with Remote Sensing and Site-Specific Data

Creator:: Buffington, Kevin J.
Abstract:: Tidal marshes are dynamic ecosystems that are threatened by climate change and sea-level rise. To characterize baseline condition and historic climate sensitivities, and improve projections into the future, new methods are required that integrate data from the field and remote sensing platforms. Marsh elevation response models can be calibrated with...

Impacts of Range Management Decisions on Native Pollinators: Innovative Grazing Practices and Riparian Restoration

Creator:: Mitchell, Scott R.
Abstract:: Animal pollination is critical to plant reproduction in agricultural and wildland ecosystems. Much of the production of seeds and fruits in natural areas, which underlie many food webs, depends on pollination services by insects. The taxon responsible for delivering the bulk of these services in most temperate systems is bees....

Movement Ecology and Population Dynamics of the Endangered Hawaiian Duck (Anas wyvilliana)

Creator:: Malachowski, Christopher P.
Abstract:: Fundamental objectives in the field of conservation biology involve understanding the processes that influence small and declining populations and applying that knowledge to develop appropriate monitoring strategies and targeted management and conservation actions. Critical first steps in determining the relative role of factors that drive population declines involves estimation of...
