A capture-recapture analysis of a mountain beaver population in western Oregon

Creator:: Lovejoy, Bill Pertl
Abstract:: This report summarizes the results of a field study of a population of the Pacific mountain beaver, Aplodontia rufa pacifica, from August 1965 through August 1967. The study site consisted of a 13. 5- acre grid on a logged over area in the Coast Range Mountains of Benton County, Oregon....

A comparative analysis of morphological, physiological, and biochemical adaptation to abiotic stress in intertidal porcelain crabs, genus Petrolisthes

Creator:: Stillman, Jonathon Harris
Abstract:: Organismal tolerance to abiotic environmental stresses contributes significantly to setting the distribution limits of organisms, as demonstrated by vertical zonation patterns in the marine intertidal zone. In this thesis, the ultimate (evolutionary) and proximate (mechanistic) causes of tolerance to temperature and emersion stresses associated with the intertidal zone were examined...

Creator:: Chatlynne, Louise Geller
Abstract:: Oögenesis in the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus was studied by histological methods and by histochemical techniques for polysaccharides, lipids, and nucleic acids Urchins were collected at Yaquina Head, Oregon at regular intervals between April 1966 and March 1967. An attempt was made to correlate seasonal variations in the coastal water...

A quantitative genetic analysis of fitness characters in Tribolium confusum

Creator:: Zirkle, Dave F.
Abstract:: The objective of this study is to assess the quantitative genetic structure of fitness characters in Tribolium confusum flour beetles. Estimates of genetic variation and covariation for a series of fitness components (two measurements of survival, larval weight, development time, fecundity, and female productivity) were obtained from two populations of...

A study of behavior in the deer mouse Peromyscus maniculatus rubidus Osgood during its 24-hour cycle of activity in a simulated natural habitat

Creator:: Laban, Cornelis
Abstract:: With a growing emphasis on details of behavior comes an increasing need for knowledge of natural behavior patterns. Studies on the life history of Peromyscus maniculatus have long been available in the literature. More recently, investigators have turned to analyzing the behavior of some of the subspecies of P.m. in...

A study of the vocal behavior of the American robin

Creator:: Benson, Jane Rae
Abstract:: To gain a better foothold on the communication system of the avifauna, calls and songs of the American Robin (Turdus migratorius) were recorded and analyzed using the sound spectrograph. Ten different calls were recognized as follows: three alarm calls, an excitement call, challenge call, contact call, two flight calls and...
