HEP as a planning tool: an application to waterfowl enhancement
Scott C. Matulich, Jeffrey E. Hanson, Ivan Lines, Adrian Farmer
1982, Transactions of the North American Wildlife and Natural Resources Conference (47)
To many, the principal role of wildlife agencies in public and private resource development has been that of impact mitigation. With known or pending habitat damage, biologists have to develop mitigation or compensation plans. Unfortunately, once in a mitigation framework, they are in a no-win situation, seeking remedial action at...

Changes in vegetation structure in seeded nesting cover in the prairie pothole region
K.F. Higgins, W.T. Barker
1982, Special Scientific Report - Wildlife 242
A sample of 365 stands of seeded nesting cover (mixtures of cool-season grasses and legumes) was studied in the glaciated prairie pothole region during 1977-79. Measurements of species composition, canopy cover, plant height, and visual obstruction values differed with stand age but only in a general way when results from...
Accumulation and loss of 2' ,5-dichloro-4'-nitrosalicylanilide (Bayer 73) by fish: laboratory studies
Verdel K. Dawson, Joe B. Sills, Charles W. Luhning
1982, Investigations in Fish Control 90
Residues of the 2-aminoethanol salt of 2',5-dichloro-4'-nitrosalicylanilide (Bayer 73), as determined by gas-liquid chromatography, were rapidly accumulated by fish exposed to the lampricide -in blood plasma, gallbladder bile, and muscle tissue of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri), and in bile and muscle of channel catfish (Ictalurus...

Effects of soils and grazing on breeding birds of uncultivated upland grasslands of the Northern Great Plains
H.A. Kantrud, R.L. Kologiski
1982, Wildlife Research Report 15
The principal use of uncultivated upland grasslands in the northern Great Plains is for livestock production. However, on lands set aside for wildlife or for scientific or recreational use, grazing by livestock may be used as a management measure to enhance populations of game species or to create conditions that...

Alewives and rainbow smelt in Lake Huron: midwater and bottom aggregations and estimates of standing stocks
Ray L. Argyle
1982, Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (111) 267-285
The continued availability of adequate amounts of forage fish, primarily alewives Alosa pseudoharengus and rainbow smelt Osmerus mordax, is critical to the success of ongoing programs aimed at rebuilding lake trout Salvelinus namaycush populations and maintaining other salmonid stocks in Lake Huron. These forage species are distributed at middepths as...
Occlusion of the syrinx as a manifestation of aspergillosis in Canada geese
R. K. Stroud, R. M. Duncan
1982, Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association (181) 1389-1390
Aspergillosis has been described in many species of wild waterfowl, primarily as a disease of the respiratory tract. Typically, mycotic granulomas are found in the lungs. Air sacs may be thickened and contain discoid individual or coalescing greenish or bluish plaques resembling bread mold. Occasionally, there is systemic involvement, with...

Two emaciated common loons (Gavia immer) were believed to have died of lead poisoning when fragments of fishing lines and lead sinkers were discovered in their stomachs. Later a third emaciated loon, which had only the remnants of fishing line in its stomach, was suspected of being a possible lead-poisoning...
Chlamydiosis in 2 biologists investigating disease occurrences in wild waterfowl
Gary Wobeser, Christopher J. Brand
1982, Wildlife Society Bulletin (10) 170-172
Chlamydiosis (ornithosis, psittacosis) is an infectious disease of birds that can be transmitted to humans. Human infections are probably acquired by inhalation of aerosols containing elementary bodies of the causative agent Chlamydia psittaci, from bird droppings, or from tissues. Infected birds do not have to be ill to transmit the...
