Greater sage-grouse movements and habitat use during winter in central Oregon

Creator:: Bruce, Jennifer R.
Abstract:: Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus), a sagebrush obligate species, has contracted in extent by nearly half its original distribution. This is primarily due to habitat loss and degradation over the past 150 years. During winter, sage-grouse depend completely on sagebrush habitat for food and cover, yet sage-grouse winter ecology has been...

Diet and nutrition of female sage grouse during the pre-laying period

Creator:: Barnett, Jenny K.
Abstract:: Nutrition effects productivity of grouse. Females that obtain high nutrient diets in spring produce larger clutches and larger, more viable chicks than hens on less nutritious diets. Grouse select high nutrient foods to help ensure proper nutrition. Reduced productivity accounted for the decline of sage grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) populations in...

Greater sage-grouse reproductive ecology : linkages among habitat resources, maternal nutrition, and chick survival

Creator:: Gregg, Michael A.
Abstract:: Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) populations declined range wide during the past 50 years. Grouse populations were 2-3 times larger than the current population as recently as the early 1970's. In addition to habitat loss and fragmentation, declines were attributed habitat degradation that caused reduced productivity. Because chick survival remains the...

Seasonal movements and distribution of migratory Roosevelt elk in the Olympic Mountains, Washington

Creator:: Schroer, Gregory L.
Abstract:: Seasonal movements, home ranges, core areas and habitat use patterns of hunted, migratory Roosevelt elk (Cervus elaphus roosevelti) were investigated on the Olympic Peninsula, Washington. Radio telemetry was used to obtain more than 3,100 locations of 9 elk from May 1984 - March 1985, and November - December, 1985. Radio-collared...

Reproductive success of the Hawaiian common gallinule (Gallinula galeata sandvicensis) nesting in taro and managed wetlands on Kaua‘i, Hawai‘i

Creator:: Webber, Bryn M.
Abstract:: The endangered Hawaiian common gallinule (Gallinula chloropus sandvicensis) is an endemic Hawaiian waterbird that occurs only on O‘ahu and Kaua‘i. Hanalei National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) supports the largest population of Hawaiian gallinule on either island and is also one of the highest producers of commercially grown taro in the state....

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...

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...

The Breeding Ecology and Foraging Niche of Aleutian Terns (Onychoprion aleuticus) in the Kodiak Archipelago, Alaska

Creator:: Tengeres, Jill E.
Abstract:: The Aleutian tern (Onychoprion aleuticus) is a species of high conservation concern in Alaska due to large declines at known breeding locations since the 1960s. Due to the small population size and ephemeral behavior of this species on the nesting grounds, there is little basic biological information available and data...
