The Influence of Alternate Life History Strategies and Natal Conditions on the Reproductive Performance of Adélie Penguins Breeding on Ross Island, Antarctica

Creator:: Kappes, Peter J.
Abstract:: A fundamental objective of ecology and population biology is to identify factors that drive population dynamics and determine the population-level consequences of their interaction with the environment. Studies of reproductive performance can illuminate population dynamic processes, including the links between organismal biology, the environment, and life history theory. A central...

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...

Elevated temperature and the production of juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in a model stream

Creator:: Bisson, Peter Andre
Abstract:: Temperature was elevated approximately 4° C in a model stream relative to an unheated, but otherwise similar control stream. The streams were located outdoors, received identical amounts of exchange water from a nearby creek, and followed natural diurnal and seasonal temperature cycles Juvenile spring chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were introduced...

Spatial and temporal movement patterns of wintering Dunlin (Calidris alpina) and Killdeer (Charadrius vociferus) in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Sanzenbacher, Peter M.
Abstract:: Avian movement behavior provides insight on patterns of regional and local fidelity, habitat and resource requirements, the scale at which individuals perceive the landscape, and the relative influence of the spatial array of resources. Shorebirds (suborder: Charadrii) are a diverse and mobile group of wetland associated species. Large numbers of...

Origin and distribution of the fish fauna of the Harney Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Bisson, Peter Andre
Abstract:: A theory of the origin and distribution of fishes in the Harney Basin is presented. Blitzen River, the hydrographically and ecologically isolated creeks, and the upland tributaries of Silvies River all contain populations derived from the basin's Pleistocene connection with Malheur River of the Snake system. Colonization of many streams...

Ecological implications of trout introductions to lakes of the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness, Idaho

Creator:: Bahls, Peter F.
Abstract:: The widespread introduction of trout to naturally fishless mountain lakes in the western United States has been accompanied by little research. The ecological role of trout populations occurring in 91 lakes of the central Selway Bitterroot Wilderness, Idaho, was examined with respect to 1) the sampling variability of biological and...

Some chronic effects of exposure to kraft mill effluent on juvenile chinook salmon

Creator:: Tokar, Erick M.
Abstract:: The effects of sublethal concentrations of kraft mill effluents (KME) on the growth, food consumption, and swimming ability of juvenile chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tschawytscha (Walbaum), were studied from February 1966 to May, 1967. The KME used in these studies was obtained from two pulp and paper mills producing paper from...

Assessing biological values of Wetland Reserve Program wetlands for wintering waterfowl

Creator:: Evans-Peters, Graham, R.
Abstract:: The Wetland Reserve Program (WRP) is one conservation tool that mitigates national wetland loss and a primary goal for the program includes optimizing wildlife habitat by restoring wetland functions and values. Few studies have evaluated the WRP, which limits our understanding of its impact on wildlife populations. I assessed the...
