J.E. Cooper, editor(s)
1989, Book chapter, Disease and Threatened Birds
The whooping crane (Grus americana), although never abundant in North America, became endangered primarily because of habitat modification and destruction. To help recovery, a captive propagation and reintroduction program was initiated at the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center (PWRC) in 1966. However, in 1984, 7 of 39 whooping cranes...
Telemetry location error in a forested habitat
Diane S. Chu, Brett A. Hoover, M.R. Fuller, P.H. Geissler
Charles J. Amlaner Jr., editor(s)
1989, Book chapter, Biotelemetry X: Proceedings of the Tenth International Symposium on Biotelemetry
The error associated with locations estimated by radio-telemetry triangulation can be large and variable in a hardwood forest. We assessed the magnitude and cause of telemetry location errors in a mature hardwood forest by using a 4-element Yagi antenna and compass bearings toward four transmitters, from 21 receiving sites....
A coded tracking telemetry system
P.W. Howey, W.S. Seegar, M.R. Fuller, K. Titus
Charles J. Amlaner Jr., editor(s)
1989, Book chapter, Biotelemetry X: Proceedings of the Tenth International Symposium on Biotelemetry
We describe the general characteristics of an automated radio telemetry system designed to operate for prolonged periods on a single frequency. Each transmitter sends a unique coded signal to a receiving system that encodes and records only the appropriater, pre-programmed codes. A record of the time of each...
Lead contamination of golden eagles Aquila chrysaetos within the range of the California condor Gymnogyps californianus

B-U. Meyburg, R.D. Chancellor, editor(s)
1989, Book chapter, Raptors in the Modern World: Proceedings of the III World Conference on Birds of Prey and Owls
Blood samples were taken from 66 golden eagles from June 1985 to January 1986 and analyzed for their lead content. Thirty-nine percent had blood lead levels greater than 0.2 ppm, indicating exposure to environmental lead. Within the exposed group, 3 had blood levels exceeding 0.6 ppm and one...
Snowy owl
D.G. Smith, D. H. Ellis
Beth Giron Pendleton, Maurice N.= LeFranc Jr., Mary Beth Moss, editor(s)
1989, Book chapter, Proceedings of the Northeast Raptor Management Symposium and Workshop.
The snowy owl is a rare to uncommon, irregular winter visitor in the northeastern United States, decreasing southward in abundance except during incursion years, when it is more common and widely distributed. Although snowy owls are recorded in northern New England every winter, major incursions occur at approximately three...
Monitoring bird populations with Breeding Bird Survey and atlas data
C.S. Robbins, Sam Droege, J.R. Sauer
Yrjo Haila, Olli Jarvinen, Pertti Koskimies, editor(s)
1989, Book chapter, Monitoring bird populations in varying environments: 10th International conference on bird census and atlas studies, Helsinki 24-28 August 1987
The principal means of monitoring avian species in North America since 1966 is the Breeding Bird Survey (BBS). Nearly 2000 random roadside rouleS of 50 3-minule stops each are run once each summer by experienced observers. Two-year and 10ng-lerm population trends have been calculated for 250 of the more common...
Turkey vulture and California condor
O. H. Pattee, S.R. Wilbur
Beth Giron Pendleton, editor(s)
1989, Book chapter, Proceedings of the Western Raptor Management Symposium and Workshop.
Populations of turkey vultures in the western states appear stable, with no evidence of recent significant changes in distribution. Turkey vultures occupy a variety of habitats, nest in diverse situations and utilize a wide variety of carrion. Consequently, no particular limiting factor is likely to have a major...
Statistical considerations in designing raptor surveys
G.W. Pendleton
Beth Giron Pendleton, Maurice N.= LeFranc Jr., Mary Beth Moss, editor(s)
1989, Book chapter, Proceedings of the Northeast Raptor Management Symposium and Workshop
Careful sampling design is required to obtain useful estimates of raptor abundance. Well-defined objectives, selection of appropriate sample units and sampling scheme, and attention to detail to reduce extraneous sources of variability and error are all important considerations in designing a raptor survey....
Mississippi Alluvial Valley
K. J. Reinecke, R.M. Kaminski, D.J. Moorhead, J.D. Hodges, J.R. Nasser

1989, Book chapter, Habitat Management for Migrating and Wintering Waterfowl in North America
Available data are summarized according to the following major topics: (1) characteristics of the Mississippi Alluvial Valley (MAV); (2) waterfowl populations associated with the MAV; (3) habitat requirements of migrating and wintering waterfowl in the MAV; (4) current habitat management practices in the MAV, including croplands, moist-soil impoundments, and...
Considerations for monitoring raptor population trends based on counts of migrants
K. Titus, M.R. Fuller, J.L. Ruos
B-U. Meyburg, R.D. Chancellor, editor(s)
1989, Book chapter, Raptors in the Modern World: Proceedings of the III World Conference on Birds of Prey and Owls
Various problems were identified with standardized hawk count data as annually collected at six sites. Some of the hawk lookouts increased their hours of observation from 1979-1985, thereby confounding the total counts. Data recording and missing data hamper coding of data and their use with modern analytical techniques....
Bald eagle and osprey
Charles J. Henny, R.G. Anthony
Beth Giron Pendleton, editor(s)
1989, Book chapter, Proceedings of the Western Raptor Management Symposium and Workshop
Bald eagles nested in all nine western states during recent years (about 19% of known U.S. population in 1982). The known numbers of nesting pairs in the west increased substantially in the last 10 years and totaled 584 in 1986. Much of the increase was due to more intensive survey...
