	3-dimensional evaluation of wing movement in ground birds during flap-running and level flight an ontogenetic study / To better understand the versatility of the avian wing, we also studied juvenile birds as they negotiated their 3-dimensional, terrestrial environment, from a period of pre-flight to adulthood. Juvenile precocial ground birds flap their developing wings from the day they hatch in order to attain elevated refuges and to descend safely from heights. The wing kinematics of pre-flight juveniles employing WAIR and controlled flapping descent (CFD) compare to those of the adult respectively performing WAIR and flying, but are awkward and clumsy. The kinematic variables observed can be organized into two groups (neuromuscular/behavioral, and growth) based on developmental patterns. In order to survive their vulnerable pre-flight stage, juveniles negotiate their complex environment by creating aerodynamic forces, conferred by their incipient wings, to flap-run up slopes to safety, and flap down to return to the ground. WAIR and CFD illustrate the incrementally adaptive uses of the ontogenetically developing wing and may be reflective of functional transitions during the evolutionary development of avian flight

	Activity patterns and habitat associations of Kemp's ridley turtles, Lepidochelys kempi, in the coastal waters of the Cedar Keys, Florida Habitat associations of Kemp's ridley turtles were analyzed in terms of availability, utilization, and preference using compositional analyses. Forty-eight percent of the study area consisted of sand bottom, but over half of the sand sites had rock outcroppings. Seagrasses comprised 16% of the available habitat, green macroalgae comprised 12%, live bottom and red macroalgae each comprised 7%, and the Corrigan Reef oyster bars comprised < 2%. Six of the turtles utilized unvegetated sand and rock bottom surrounding Corrigan Reef (65-78% of foraging ranges and 64-82% of locations), and three turtles utilized the vegetated southern region (37-64% of foraging ranges and 31-57% of locations). Compositional analyses indicated that turtles used rock outcroppings in their foraging ranges at a significantly higher proportion than available within the study area. Additionally, live bottom and green macroalgae were utilized significantly more than seagrasses. Water depth ranged from intertidal oyster reefs to depths > 3 m, but turtles preferred 1-3 m depths within their foraging ranges. Daily activities of turtles were attributed to food acquisition and bioenergetics, while their habitat associations may be correlated to habitat structure, prey availability, competition, and developmental stage

	Alaskan Eskimo and Polynesian Island population skeletal anatomy the "Pacific paradox" revisited through surface area to body mass comparisons / This project is an attempt to re-examine the "Pacific Paradox," as proposed by Philip Houghton (1996), through various morphological measurements on two climatically different populations, Alaskan Eskimo and Pacific Island groups. The "Pacific Paradox" has been widely discussed, but research using direct comparisons between this Pacific population and cold climate groups has received little attention. The methods employed are those preformed by Ruff (1994), Ruff et al. (1991, 2004, 2005) and Houghton (1996) to create the most accurate determination of overall body form in both populations. Eight measurements were used to construct variables to create an accurate portrayal of overall body shape. These measurements were taken on Alaskan Eskimo populations spread throughout the entire region of Alaska and on Polynesian populations from a wide variety of Pacific Islands. The overall comparisons demonstrate similarities in the two body mass estimations; the bi-iliac breadth measurement and maximum femoral head diameter, and in the overall stature to body mass ratios, except in the males, who are significantly different in every measurement apart from surface area to body mass ratios and stature to body mass ratios. Further studies on each population were conducted to determine the role of latitude or isolation factors on each population. Interestingly, the Alaskan group did not follow the stereotypical trend of cold climate adaptation based on latitude. In the female groups, the females from the lowest latitude had the lowest surface area to body mass ratios followed by the highest latitude group. The male groups followed the stereotype with the highest latitude group having the lowest surface area to body mass ratio but interestingly, the group from the lowest latitude had the next lowest ratio. Polynesian results illustrated somewhat similar body proportions throughout the region with only a few exceptions. Meanwhile, several individuals measured from the Polynesian collection could be considered part of Melanesia. Migration patterns, founder effect through disease frequencies, nutritional effects and cultural traits along with many other issues are presented when examining the similarities and differences the Polynesian population has in comparison to both the Alaskan group and the small Melanesian sample

	Allometric scaling and floral size variation in Collinsia Allometric scaling theory has previously been used to estimate the functional relationship between two biological variables. In addition to parameter estimation, deviations from the general scaling relationship can be used to create hypotheses. Here, I explore deviations from the allometric scaling pattern for plant and floral size within the genus Collinsia on three levels: among species, within species, and among populations of a single species. Collinsia species are self-compatible annual herbaceous plants that have been shown to vary in floral size, autonomous fruit production, and estimated mating system. I quantified the amount of variation in characteristics related to plant mating systems: floral size and autonomous fruit production in a pollinator-free environment and used variation and scaling deviations to generate expectations about environmental selection pressures. I found that the scaling relationships differed on each of the three levels and that deviation from the general floral size-plant size relationship is common within this genus. The among-species regression explained only 20% of the variation in floral size, and species- and population-level regressions explained even less. The four species for which I obtained controlled environment estimates of vegetative and floral trait in this study differed significantly in autonomous fruit production, floral size, and plant size, while populations of C. heterophylla differed in floral and plant characteristics, but not autonomous fruit production. In addition, variation in plant size characteristics was 50-66% greater than variation in floral size characteristics suggesting selection to reduce variation in floral size and flexibility in plant size. Autonomous fruit production was correlated with floral size in C. tinctoria, with floral number in C. verna, and uncorrelated in C. heterophylla suggesting that the ability to self-fertilize varies among species. Using a comparative method and investigating factors correlated with plant mating system, such as floral traits, across a group of closely related species provides new insights into factors affecting their variation

	Anabat bat detection system : description and maintenance manual / Anabat bat detection systems record ultrasonic bat calls on cassette tape by using a sophisticated ultrasonic microphone and cassette tape interface. This paper describes equipment setup and some maintenance issues. The layout and function of display panels are presented with special emphasis on how to use this information to troubleshoot equipment problems. The maintenance section describes opening the equipment, identifying an internal battery, removing panels for maintenance, reinstalling a dislodged light sensor, replacing a broken switch, constructing and replacing a critical battery stack, and making an external power cable. A short discussion on the Anabat software describes how to access, install, and check the Anabat5 program for use with the Anabat equipment. The unit used to access field data collected on a cassette recorder, the zero crossings analysis interface module (ZCAIM), is briefly addressed with a section on how to adjust the tape recorder head skew so that field data can be reproduced accurately on a laboratory recorder. Tips for handling 12-volt rechargeable batteries are also included

	Analysis of intraspecific and interspecific interactions between the invasive exotic tree-of-heaven (Ailanthus altissima (Miller) Swingle) and the native black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) Invasive exotic plants can persist and successfully spread within ecosystems and negatively affect the recruitment of native species. The exotic invasive Ailanthus altissima and the native Robinia pseudoacacia are frequently found in disturbed sites and exhibit similar growth and reproductive characteristics, yet each has distinct functional roles such as allelopathy and nitrogen fixation, respectively. 1) A four-month full additive series in the greenhouse and 2) spatial point pattern analysis of trees in a silvicultural experiment were used to analyze the intraspecific and interspecific interference between these two species. In the greenhouse experiment, total biomass responses per plant for both species were significantly affected by interspecific but not by intraspecific interference (p <0.05). Competition indices such as Relative Yield Total and Relative Crowding Coefficient suggested that A. altissima was the better competitor in mixed plantings. Ailanthus altissima consistently produced a larger above ground and below ground relative yield while R. pseudoacacia generated a larger aboveground relative yield in high density mixed species pots. However, R. pseudoacacia exhibited more variation for multiple biomass traits, occasionally giving it an above ground advantage in some mixed species pots. Analysis of spatial point patterns in the field with Ripley's K indicated that the two species were positively associated with each other along highly disturbed skid trails in the majority of the field sites. Locally, increased disturbances could lead to more opportunities for A. altissima to invade, negatively interact with R. pseudoacacia (as was evident in the greenhouse study), and become established in place of native species

	Analysis of the ash weight and elemental composition in caribou (Rangifer tarandus) faecal pellets collected at Colomac and other sites in the NWT / Barren-ground caribou (Rangifer tarandus) faecal pellets were collected from several sites in the NWT and analysed for evidence of exposure to major dust and soil sources using two methods. The collection sites included two areas of tailings at the Colomac mine (abandoned), with on-site and off-site control areas and seasonal ranges, and sites at or near the Ekati and Diavik diamond mines. Insoluble ash content of the faecal material averaged 9.3% of the dry matter (D.M.) and varied significantly between sites. A group of samples from the tailings areas at Colomac had elevated ash contents and exceeded 30% of dry matter in five samples. Based on several assumptions, the dietary soil intake necessary to achieve the high ash contents in the faecal samples from Colomac would exceed 50% of the diet in one sample. The average ash content of all the samples collected from the tailings area at Colomac was significantly (p<0.05) higher than the off-site control samples. Ash from the faecal pellets was chemically similar to tailings collected at Colomac. Consistent differences were also observed between the Ekati samples and those from natural range areas, although the variance explained by the associations was relatively low. The results of the study are generally consistent with published reports on high rates of soil ingestion at lick sites by ungulates. This ingestion can result in very high levels of soil in the diet, similar to the maximum levels noted here. The ecological risk assessment for Colomac included an explicit soil ingestion model for caribou which assumed an ingestion rate of 20% of the diet. The data in the present study support the use of this average value but indicate that maximum values may range as high as 50% in some caribou. The study was not designed to describe the amount of the elements absorbed by caribou which have ingested the tailings
	analysis of the ecology and public perception of coarse woody debris in Virginia Coarse woody debris (CWD) is an important habitat component for wildlife, fish, and plants and is important in nutrient cycling and soil formation. Knowledge of the volume, distribution, and use of CWD across Virginia would be useful to forest managers modeling nutrient budgets in southeastern forests and is important to wildlife management efforts. Knowledge of the effectiveness of informational brochures and cooperative learning activities/presentations at influencing public perception of CWD is important to program design and evaluation efforts in teaching and extension. The objectives of this study were to quantify the relationship between forest cover type and CWD volume, correlate CWD volume with small mammal and bird activity, distribute information on the advantages and disadvantages of CWD using informational brochures and cooperative learning activities/presentations, and compare the effectiveness of such teaching techniques at influencing public perception of CWD. The volume and wildlife use of CWD was assessed within 12 mature second-growth stands in Virginia. Volume of CWD was measured using fixed-area plots. Use of CWD by small mammals and birds was assessed by noting bodily, foraging, or movement evidence. Pre- and post-survey instruments were used to evaluate how perceptions were altered in first year college students who either reviewed an informational brochure or participated in a cooperative learning activity/presentation. Results suggested that the management of CWD for wildlife was most needed in southeastern Virginia where CWD volumes were lowest and that the value of CWD for wildlife was best conveyed through cooperative learning activities/presentations and ma
