Life History Trade-offs: The Effects of Habitat Selection on Columbian Black-tailed Deer Survival in Oregon

Creator:: Clark, Jessica S.
Abstract:: The assessment of habitat quality for wild populations requires evaluation of vital rates associated with the use of that habitat. Factors associated with bottom-up (forage) or top-down (predation) regulation and the relative contribution of these processes on ungulate populations are difficult to quantify, especially for a cryptic, but widely distributed...

Historic Survival Rates and Cause-Specific Mortality for Columbian Black-Tailed Deer in Southwest Oregon

Creator:: Groot, Kevyn A.
Abstract:: In contrast with other Odocoileus species, Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) population dynamics are not well understood throughout the species’ range. Concerns over apparent long-term population declines have prompted efforts to fill basic knowledge gaps including estimates of vital rates (fecundity, recruitment and survival) and cause-specific mortality. The Oregon...

An Interdisciplinary approach towards understanding late Pleistocene ice sheet change

Creator:: Cuzzone, Joshua K.
Abstract:: The results presented in this dissertation address a number of questions regarding late Pleistocene and Holocene ice-sheet and climate interactions, spanning disciplines involving paleoclimatology and atmospheric science. These studies use various techniques in geochemistry, climate modeling, and ice-sheet modeling to address ice- sheet response to climate and the attendant interactions...

Carnivore Competition: Spatial and Dietary Implications of Gray Wolf Recolonization for Cougars in Northeast Oregon

Creator:: Orning, Elizabeth Kari
Abstract:: After a 40-year absence from Oregon’s landscape, expanding gray wolf (Canis lupus) populations are reestablishing elements of interspecific competition with sympatric large carnivores, like cougars (Puma concolor). This presents new challenges for management of large carnivores and their ungulate prey populations (e.g., elk, Cervus canadensis nelsoni; mule deer, Odocoileus hemionus)...

Survival Rates and Cause-Specific Mortality of Mule Deer in South-Central Oregon

Creator:: Mulligan, Elizabeth M.
Abstract:: It is critical for wildlife managers to understand the population dynamics of a harvested species, particularly for ungulates, which are a valuable wildlife resource. Due to concerns that mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) populations in Oregon were declining, more comprehensive data on population vital rates and the factors potentially affecting them...

The Influence of Alternate Life History Strategies and Natal Conditions on the Reproductive Performance of Adélie Penguins Breeding on Ross Island, Antarctica

Creator:: Kappes, Peter J.
Abstract:: A fundamental objective of ecology and population biology is to identify factors that drive population dynamics and determine the population-level consequences of their interaction with the environment. Studies of reproductive performance can illuminate population dynamic processes, including the links between organismal biology, the environment, and life history theory. A central...

Recruitment predictors of an endangered prairie species : a case study of Erigeron decumbens

Creator:: Gallagher, Katie J.
Abstract:: Preservation of rare plant species often requires establishment of new populations. Survivorship surveys are the most common method of post-introduction monitoring. However, they provide an incomplete picture of establishment success. This study is an attempt to develop a model for determining establishment success by determining the factors affecting recruitment in...

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...

Top-down Influences of bald eagles on common murre populations in Oregon

Creator:: Horton, Cheryl A.
Abstract:: Populations of organisms are influenced by both top-down (predator driven) and bottom-up (environment or resource driven) effects. Seabird research has largely focused on bottom-up factors influencing reproduction, with little emphasis on top-down. Our goal was to better understand top-down impacts on colonial nesting seabirds over a range of spatio-temporal scales....
