Effects of jet aircraft overflights and other potential disturbances on behavioral responses and productivity of nesting peregrine falcons

Creator:

Nordmeyer, Dana L.

Abstract:

In order to examine the potential impact of military jet overflights and other disturbances on productivity of peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus), we observed behavioral reactions of peregrines to disturbances at nests along the Tanana River, Alaska during the 1995-1997 breeding seasons. Military jets conducted low-altitude flights over a sample of...

A comparative study of two methods for measuring attenuation values of personal hearing protection devices

Creator:

Martin, Larry G.

Abstract:

Noise induced hearing loss is a subject of growing concern. Over the past 15 years, several well-documented studies have been completed which express the relationships between industrial noise exposure and damage to normal and pathological ears. This research has provided knowledge of considerable importance to developing successful hearing conservation programs....
