The Influence of Scale in a Structured Decision Making Framework for Chinook Salmon Management

Creator:: McDonnell, Kevin N.
Abstract:: The goal of my dissertation was to explore how scale influences stream restoration prioritization strategies for an anadromous species and identify influential uncertainties that exist at different scales. My objectives were to (1) produce a comprehensive review of the Chinook salmon management challenges in California’s Central Valley and identify the...

Heat shock proteins and physiological stress in redband rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) in the South Fork John Day River, Oregon

Creator:: Feldhaus, Joseph W.
Abstract:: The goal of this research was to characterize thermal habitat requirements for juvenile redband steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) in the South Fork John Day River (SFJD), Oregon using physiological indicators of fish condition. Physiological indices of fish condition measured were whole body lipid content and heat shock proteins, specifically...

The role of body size in the foraging strategies and management of avian herbivores : a comparison of dusky Canada geese (Branta canadensis occidentalis) and cackling geese (B. hutchinsii minima) wintering in the Willamette Valley of Oregon

Creator:: Mini, Anne E.
Abstract:: Body size explains much of the interspecific variation in the physiology, behavior, and morphology of birds, such as metabolic rate, diet selection, intake rate, gut size, and bill size. Based on mass-specific metabolic requirements and relative energetic costs of activities, being a certain body size has both advantages and disadvantages....

Towards an Integrated Decision Tool for Managing Wildlife with Visitor Restrictions in Glacier Bay National Park

Creator:: Whitlock, Steven L.
Abstract:: The National Park Service has a dual mission of providing public access to exceptional natural resources, but in a manner such that these resources are left “unimpaired for the enjoyment of future generations.” Human activities in parks undoubtedly affect wildlife, but the degree to which such activities cause impairment is...

A Comparative Study of Foraging Behavior and Disturbance Regimes in Urban Versus Agricultural Habitats used by Cackling Geese Wintering in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Harrington, Erin R.
Abstract:: The Cackling goose (Branta hutchinsii minima) population has increased from a low of 20,000 in 1984 to the current population of 220,000-300,000 (Stehn 2012, Sanders 2013). As the Cackling goose population began to recover in the late 1990s, the majority of the population relocated from wintering in California to the...

American marten distributions over a 28 year period : relationships with landscape change in Sagehen Creek Experimental Forest, California, USA

Creator:: Moriarty, Katie M.
Abstract:: The distribution of American martens (Martes americana) within Sagehen Creek Experimental Forest (SCEF), Tahoe National Forest, California has been periodically documented from 1980–1993. This area has been the location of nine marten surveys, each involving a systematic detection/nondetection survey on the same grid. These data are an unprecedented time series...

Assessing Renesting Rate and Survey Methods of Red Phalarope (Phalaropus fulicarius), a Polyandrous Arctic-breeding Shorebird

Creator:: Cosgrove, Jillian M.
Abstract:: The life history traits of polygamous, non-territorial shorebirds like the Red Phalarope (Phalaropus fulicarius) can make it challenging to assess their population status. There are two general approaches to statistical inference used to understand shorebird (Order: Charadriiformes) population change: design-based inference, which implements an a-priori sampling scheme with known selection...

Using auklets to monitor the effects of global warming on the Bering Sea ecosystem : Detecting change in auklet food supply, productivity, and populations

Creator:: Sheffield, Lisa M.
Abstract:: Global warming is progressing more rapidly in polar-regions, and its effects are more pronounced at high latitudes than in other parts of the globe. Changing ocean conditions due to climate change are predicted to have dramatic impacts on marine foodwebs. Seabirds, as upper trophic-level consumers, provide a highly visible and...

Effects of logging on the growth of juvenile coho salmon

Creator:: Iwanaga, Paul M.
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to study the effects of increased water temperature characteristic of clearcut watersheds of Pacific coastal streams upon the growth rate of juvenile coho salmon. The natural temperature fluctuations of the stream were used in the study of growth of underyearling fish held in aquariums...
