Habitat suitability and uncertainty : a Bayesian approach to mapping benthic invertebrate distributions

Creator:: Havron, Andrea M.
Abstract:: Mitigating for increased human impact to the seafloor associated with resource extraction activities and renewable energy development can benefit from an understanding of the distribution of sensitive marine benthic species. Habitat suitability predictive modeling is a cost effective statistical tool to infer species distribution patterns from constrained sampling locations. However,...

California condors in the Pacific Northwest : integrating history, molecular ecology, and spatial modeling for reintroduction planning

Creator:: D'Elia, Jesse
Abstract:: Reintroduction programs are increasingly being used to save animals from extinction and aid in their recovery. The California Condor (Gymnogyps californianus), one of the most endangered birds in the world, is a remarkable example of how reintroduction programs can help rapidly increase a species' population numbers and range following a...

Breeding and foraging ecology of Caspian terns nesting on artificial islands in the Upper Klamath Basin, California

Creator:: Patterson, Allison (Allison Glider)
Abstract:: Availability of suitable nesting habitat that is free of nest predators and provides access to adequate prey resources within commuting distance is a major factor limiting seabird populations. Caspian terns (Hydroprogne caspia) in western North America have shifted their breeding habitat from naturally occurring habitats in interior wetlands, lakes, and...

The roles of provenance and phylogeny in recruitment, community assembly, and species coexistence in invaded California grasslands

Creator:: Brandt, Angela J.
Abstract:: Biological invasions pose one of the greatest threats to global biodiversity, but many naturalized invaders coexist with the native community. Community ecology theory provides a framework for understanding the mechanisms by which invaders might coexist with native species or exclude them from the community, thus informing management practices to maximize...

Stand structures of Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana) woodlands and their relationships to the environment in southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Gilligan, Laurie A.
Abstract:: Large areas of non-coniferous communities in southwestern Oregon are thinned to reduce fire hazard and accomplish ecosystem restoration, under the assumption that current fuel loads are unnaturally high. Although Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana) woodlands are a characteristic landscape component in this region, little is known about their current or...

Ecology of mallard ducklings on Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge, California

Creator:: Mauser, David M.
Abstract:: The ecology of female mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) and their broods was studied during 1988-90 on Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge, California. Survival of 127 radio-marked ducklings from 64 broods was 0.18 to 10 days of life, and 0.37 and 0.34 to fledging for 1988, 1989, and 1990, respectively. For the...

Seasonal distribution and environment of adult Pacific herring (Clupea harengus pallasi) near Auke Bay, Lynn Canal, southeastern Alaska

Creator:: Carlson, Harry Richard
Abstract:: The distribution of adult Pacific herring (Clupea harengue pallasi) near Auke Bay, Lynn Canal, southeastern Alaska, varied by depth and geographic area over 24 successive months during 1973-75. From June through September, schools concentrated at 5- to 37-m depths where zooplankton was abundant, and moderate currents were present in a...
