Toxicity of sediments and pore water from Brunswick Estuary, Georgia
Parley V. Winger, Peter J. Lasier, Harvey Geitner
1993, Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology (25) 371-376
A chlor-alkali plant in Brunswick, Georgia, USA, discharged >2 kg mercury/d into a tributary of the Turtle River-Brunswick Estuary from 1966 to 1971. Mercury concentrations in sediments collected in 1989 along the tributary near the chlor-alkali plant ranged from 1 to 27 μg/g (dry weight), with the highest concentrations found...
Evaluation of three elevated mist-net systems for sampling birds
J.M. Meyers, K.L. Pardieck
1993, Journal of Field Ornithology (64) 270-277
Three light-weight, low-canopy mist-net systems were developed and tested in dry tropical scrub, mangrove and forest habitats. One plastic (polyvinyl chloride) and two aluminum pole systems (with and without pulleys) were used to support mist nets to heights of up to 7.3 m. Although the aluminum telescoping-pole system (without pulleys)...
In memoriam: Arthur Bernard Singer, 1917-1990
Chandler S. Robbins
1993, The Auk (110) 376-377
Arthur Bernard Singer was born 4 December 1917, and died 6 April 1990. Although brought up in New York City, Arthur developed an early fascination with birds. His favorite haunts were the Bronx Zoo and the American Museum of Natural History, where Robert Cushman Murphy encouraged his efforts and where...
Natal dispersal and gene flow in white-tailed deer in northeastern Minnesota
M.E. Nelson
1993, Journal of Mammalogy (74) 316-322
I documented natal dispersal and gene flow in 79 yearling white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) in northeastern Minnesota during 1974–1988. Sixty-four percent (n = 28) of 44 males and 20% (n = 7) of 35 females dispersed from their natal home ranges when 1.0–1.5-years old. Eighty-six percent and 95%, of all yearlings...
Resistance of young wolf pups to inclement weather
L.D. Mech
1993, Journal of Mammalogy (74) 485-486
Three observations of young wolf (Canis lupus) pups in Denali National Park and Preserve, Alaska, and two on Ellesmere Island, Northwest Territories, Canada, indicate that pups <33 days of age are highly resistant to inclement weather, contrary to earlier conjecture....
Cryopreservation of American kestrel semen with dimethylsulfoxide
G.F. Gee, C.A. Morrell, J. Christian Franson, Oliver H. Pattee
1993, Journal of Raptor Research (27) 21-25
Semen samples from 15 male American Kestrels (Falco sparverius) were frozen in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). The semen was thawed 1-14 mo later and used to inseminate six females during three breeding seasons. Kestrels inseminated with thawed semen containing 4% DMSO produced only infertile eggs (N = 14). Kestrels inseminated with...
Site tenacity of the endangered palila
S.G. Fancy, R.T. Sugihara, J.J. Jeffrey, J.D. Jacobi
1993, The Wilson Bulletin (105) 587-596
Strong site tenacity might prevent Palila (Loxioides bailleui), an endangered Hawaiian honeycreeper, from repopulating favorable habitats in their former range. We used radio telemetry during the nonbreeding and breeding seasons to study movements and dispersal rates of 57 Palila. All Palila remained in the study area, and home range sizes...
Effects of habitat availability on dispersion of a stream cyprinid
Mary C. Freeman, Gary D. Grossman
1993, Environmental Biology of Fishes (37) 121-130
We analyzed temporal changes in the dispersion of the rosyside dace,Clinostomus funduloides, (family Cyprinidae) in a headwater stream, to assess the role of habitat availability in promoting fish aggregation. The dace foraged alone and in groups of up to about 25 individuals, and dispersion varied significantly among monthly censuses conducted...
Resource protection for waterbirds in Chesapeake Bay
R.M. Erwin, G.M. Haramis, D.G. Krementz, S.L. Funderburk
1993, Environmental Management (17) 613-619
Many living resources in the Chesapeake Bay estuary have deteriorated over the past 50 years. As a result, many governmental committees, task forces, and management plans have been established. Most of the recommendations for implementing a bay cleanup focus on reducing sediments and nutrient flow into the watershed. We emphasize...
