Factors affecting female space use in ten populations of prairie chickens

Creator:: Winder, Virginia L., Carrlson, Kaylan M., Gregory, Andrew J., Hagen, Christian A., Haukos, David A., Kesler, Dylan C., Larsson, Lena C., Matthews, Ty W., McNew, Lance B., Patten, Michael A., Pitman, Jim C., Powell, Larkin A., Smith, Jennifer A., Thompson, Tom, Wolfe, Donald H., and Sandercock, Brett K.
Abstract:: Conservation of wildlife depends on an understanding of the interactions between animal movements and key landscape factors. Habitat requirements of wide-ranging species often vary spatially, but quantitative assessment of variation among replicated studies at multiple sites is rare. We investigated patterns of space use for 10 populations of two closely...

Determination of marine migratory behavior and its relationship to selected physical traits for least cisco (Coregonus sardinella) of the western Arctic coastal plain, Alaska

Creator:: Seigle, John C.
Abstract:: With increased resource development on the western Arctic coastal plain of Alaska (especially within the oil extraction industry) it is important to understand the basic life history attributes of whitefish stocks in the region in order to ensure appropriate management. These fish are a crucial part of subsistence harvests for...

Population Genetics of American Pika (Ochotona princeps) : Investigating Gene Flow and Genetic Diversity Across Multiple, Complex Landscapes

Creator:: Castillo, Jessica A.
Abstract:: American pikas (Ochotona princeps) are considered an indicator species of climate change. Adaptations for cold climates and active winters make pikas particularly sensitive to increasing temperatures. This, combined with evidence that multiple historically occupied populations have been extirpated within the past century, contributed to American pikas becoming a focal species...

Using parasite community data and population genetics for assessing Pacific sardine (Sardinops sagax) population structure along the west coast of North America

Creator:: Baldwin, Rebecca E. B.
Abstract:: Pacific sardines (Sardinops sagax) are an economically and ecologically important forage fish which transfer energy from planktonic primary producers and secondary consumers to upper trophic predators. Previous genetics studies of Pacific sardine suggested a panmictic population with a shallow genetic structure. However, more than one subpopulation within the Central California...

Patterns of natural selection and demography in coastal Oregon coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) populations : evidence from neutral and olfactory receptor gene-linked markers

Creator:: Johnson, Marc Aaron
Abstract:: For Pacific salmon, the evolution of local adaptations depends upon the species' propensity to return, or "home", to natal streams at time of reproduction. Pacific salmon use olfactory cues to guide homing behavior, yet little is known about the genetics of olfaction in salmon. In this study, I use putatively...

Jumping in with Both Feet: Exploring Factors that Shape Juvenile Amphibian Movement

Creator:: Bredeweg, Evan M.
Abstract:: Investigation into how animals move within the landscape is important for both understanding of ecological processes and conservation management. Animal movement is important in shaping life history transitions, demographics, individual fitness, and species distributions. However, as landscapes become increasingly affected by human activities, movement becomes important as species navigate landscapes...

The Ecophysiology of Thiamine Deficiency Complex : Evaluating Sources of Thiaminase in Great Lakes Food Webs

Creator:: Evans, Allison N.
Abstract:: Thiamine (vitamin B₁) is required by all living organisms for carbohydrate metabolism and synthesis of amino acids. Thiamine deficiency is responsible for several related classes of early life stage mortality disorders in salmonines, including Thiamine Deficiency Complex (TDC) in the Laurentian Great Lakes, Cayuga Syndrome in the Finger Lakes, and...

Comparative wintering ecology of two subspecies of sandhill crane : informing conservation planning in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta region of California

Creator:: Ivey, Gary L.
Abstract:: California's Central Valley agricultural landscapes provide several important wintering regions for Pacific Flyway sandhill crane (Grus canadensis) populations; however, the value of those regions is being compromised by urban expansion, other developments, and conversions to incompatible crop types. Greater (G. c. tabida) and lesser sandhill cranes (G. c. canadensis) both...

Seasonal distribution and environment of adult Pacific herring (Clupea harengus pallasi) near Auke Bay, Lynn Canal, southeastern Alaska

Creator:: Carlson, Harry Richard
Abstract:: The distribution of adult Pacific herring (Clupea harengue pallasi) near Auke Bay, Lynn Canal, southeastern Alaska, varied by depth and geographic area over 24 successive months during 1973-75. From June through September, schools concentrated at 5- to 37-m depths where zooplankton was abundant, and moderate currents were present in a...

Paenibacillus thiaminolyticus is not the cause of thiamine deficiency impeding lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) recruitment in the Great Lakes

Creator:: Richter, Catherine A., Evans, Allison N., Wright-Osment, Maureen K., Zajicek, James L., Heppell, Scott A., Riley, Stephen C., Krueger, Charles C., and Tillitt, Donald E.
Abstract:: Thiamine (vitamin B₁) deficiency is a global concern affecting wildlife, livestock, and humans. In Great Lakes salmonines, thiamine deficiency causes embryo mortality and is an impediment to restoration of native lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) stocks. Thiamine deficiency in fish may result from a diet of prey with high levels of...
