The role of avian predators in an Oregon rocky intertidal community

Creator:: Marsh, Christopher P.
Abstract:: Birds affected the community structure of an Oregon rocky shore by preying upon mussels (Mytilus spp.) and limpets (Collisella spp.). The impact of such predation is potentially great, as mussels are the competitively dominant mid-intertidal space-occupiers, and limpets are important herbivores in this community. Prey selection by birds reflects differences...

Oceanographic conditions around the Galápagos Archipelago and their influence on cetacean community structure

Creator:: Palacios, Daniel Mauricio
Abstract:: The objectives of this dissertation were to describe the complex oceanographic conditions around the Galápagos Archipelago (eastern equatorial Pacific), their seasonal variability, and their effects on patterns of cetacean occurrence. The physical and ecological factors leading to a plume of high phytoplankton biomass in the wake of the Galápagos were...

Formation of heterocyclic n-nitrosamines from the reaction of nitrite and selected primary diamines and amino acids

Creator:: Warthesen, Joseph John
Abstract:: The reaction of several primary amines with nitrite was investigated with regard to the formation of N-nitrosamines. When reacted in a low moisture system at 160°C with a 1:2 molar ratio of amine to sodium nitrite, various primary amine hydrochloride salts were found to give rise to heterocyclic nitrosamines. The...

Comparative wintering ecology of two subspecies of sandhill crane : informing conservation planning in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta region of California

Creator:: Ivey, Gary L.
Abstract:: California's Central Valley agricultural landscapes provide several important wintering regions for Pacific Flyway sandhill crane (Grus canadensis) populations; however, the value of those regions is being compromised by urban expansion, other developments, and conversions to incompatible crop types. Greater (G. c. tabida) and lesser sandhill cranes (G. c. canadensis) both...

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....
