Aspects of the foraging ecology of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) in Frederick Sound and Stephens Passage, Southeast Alaska

Creator:: Szabo, Andrew R.
Abstract:: The North Pacific humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) population has been increasing at an average annual rate of ~6% since the early 1990s.

Foraging ecology of prairie falcons in northern California

Creator:: Haak, Bruce A.
Abstract:: Nine Prairie Falcons (Falco mexicanus) were radio-tagged in northern California during the spring and summer of 1976 and 1977 to study foraging behavior. The mean home range size for 3 males was 227.8 km²; largest portions of the home range were used during the incubation period. Shifts in foraging areas...
