Influences of Thermal and Trophic Heterogeneity on Phenology, Growth, and Resource Use by Juvenile Coho Salmon

Creator:: Campbell, Emily Y.
Abstract:: Ecological resources available to freshwater fish shift spatially, temporally and across life stages. To better understand how spatial-temporal availability of resources influence fish, I examined the phenologies of hatching and emergence of Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in streams with contrasting and strongly defined seasonal thermal variability. The study streams included...

Bat Monitoring in North Coast and Cascades Network Summer 2019

Creator:: Barnett, Emily, Mock, Rayanne, Grigorov, Anastacia, Levorse, Alexis, and Chestnut, Tara
Abstract:: The detection of white-nose syndrome (WNS) in King County, WA in 2016 prompted the National Park Service to mobilize region-wide bat monitoring and disease surveillance. One of the goals of the Pacific West Region WNS response plan was to implement acoustic monitoring to determine the distribution of bat species and...

Photo-identification of Melon-headed Whales (Peponocephala electra) in the Marquesas Islands : Creation of the First Photo-identification Catalog and Estimation of Group Size and Minimum Abundance in a Remote Archipelago

Creator:: McClung, John Ralph, II
Abstract:: For many species of oceanic dolphins, photo-identification and genetic data indicate that these island-associated populations are demographically isolated from pelagic populations and that island-associated populations exhibit very different patterns of movement and habitat use. Melon-headed whales (Peponocephala electra) are generally considered a pelagic dolphin, but have been documented around oceanic...

Prevalence, geographic distribution, and biology of a dungeness crab, Cancer magister, microsporidian parasite

Creator:: Childers, Richard K.
Abstract:: The microsporidian parasite Nadelspora canceri infects Dungeness crabs, Cancer magister, along the United States Pacific Northwest coast. The prevalence and seasonal variation of N. canceri in Dungeness crabs from Alsea Bay, Oregon, are described based on examination of 2991 crabs collected at monthly intervals from October, 1991 to June, 1993....

Cruise ship disturbance to Kittlitz's murrelets (Brachyramphus brevirostris) in Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, Alaska

Creator:: Marcella, Timothy K.
Abstract:: The Kittlitz's murrelet (Brachyramphus brevirostris), a small pursuit-diving seabird in the family Alcidae, occurs across much of coastal Alaska and parts of the Russian Far East. Glacier Bay National Park, located in Southeast Alaska, is believed to support approximately 37% of the worldwide breeding population of Kittlitz's murrelets during the...

Evidence for geomagnetic imprinting as a homing mechanism in Pacific salmon

Creator:: Putnam, Nathan F., Lohmann, Kenneth J., Putnam, Emily M., Quinn, Thomas P., Klimley, A. Peter, and Noakes, David L. G.
Abstract:: In the final phase of their spawning migration, Pacific salmon use chemical cues to identify their home river, but how they navigate from the open ocean to the correct coastal area has remained enigmatic [1]. To test the hypothesis that salmon imprint on the magnetic field that exists where they...

Applications of slow-moving autonomous platforms for passive acoustic monitoring and density estimation of marine mammals

Creator:: Fregosi, Selene
Abstract:: Advances in mobile autonomous vehicles for oceanographic sensing provide new opportunities for passive acoustic monitoring of marine mammals. Acoustically equipped mobile autonomous platforms, including gliders, deep-water profiling floats, and drifting surface buoys can survey for a variety of marine mammal species over intermediate spatiotemporal scales. Additionally, such mobile platforms may...

Estimating Global ‘‘Blue Carbon’’ Emissions from Conversion and Degradation of Vegetated Coastal Ecosystems

Creator:: Pendleton, Linwood, Donato, Daniel C., Murray, Brian C., Crooks, Stephen, Jenkins, W. Aaron, Sifleet, Samantha, Craft, Christopher, Fourqurean, James W., Kauffman, J. Boone, Marba, Nuria, Megonigal, Patrick, Pidgeon, Emily, Herr, Dorothee, Gordon, David, and Baldera, Alexis
Abstract:: Recent attention has focused on the high rates of annual carbon sequestration in vegetated coastal ecosystems—marshes, mangroves, and seagrasses—that may be lost with habitat destruction (‘conversion’). Relatively unappreciated, however, is that conversion of these coastal ecosystems also impacts very large pools of previously-sequestered carbon. Residing mostly in sediments, this ‘blue...

Ecology of Columbian black-tailed deer fawns in western Oregon

Creator:: Pamplin, Nathan P.
Abstract:: Little is known about Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) because of their elusive nature and the logistical difficulty of studying them in densely forested and mountainous terrain. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife has identified fawn survival as an important gap in the current knowledge of demography and...

Short-tailed weasel space use in managed forests of western Oregon

Creator:: Linnell, Mark A.
Abstract:: Although short-tailed weasels (Mustela erminea) are important predators of small mammals, little is known about their space use, habitat selection, or vulnerability to predation in North America. To evaluate the effects of forest management and social structure on home range size and habitat selection of short-tailed weasels, I conducted a...
