Vertical distribution of a deep-water moss and associated epiphytes in Crater Lake, Oregon Vertical distribution of a deep-water moss and associated epiphytes in Crater Lake, Oregon
A one-person submersible was used to examine the vertical distribution of the deep-water moss Drepanocladus aduncus (Hedw.) Warnst in Crater Lake (Oregon). Living specimens were found attached to sediment and rocks at depths between 25 m and 140 m. Dense beds of the moss were observed at depths between 30 m and 80 m, a region that corresponded roughly to the zone of maximum primary...

Integrating limnological characteristics of high mountain lakes into the landscape of a natural area Integrating limnological characteristics of high mountain lakes into the landscape of a natural area
A general conceptual watershed-lake model of the complex interactions among climatic conditions, watershed location and characteristics, lake morphology, and fish predation was used to evaluate limnological characteristics of high mountain lakes. Our main hypothesis was that decreasing elevation in mountainous terrain corresponds to an increase in diversity of watershed size and lake...

Predation by dipteran larvae on fairy shrimp (Crustacea: Anostraca) in Utah rock pools Predation by dipteran larvae on fairy shrimp (Crustacea: Anostraca) in Utah rock pools
A series of experiments examined how ecological factors affect notonectid foraging success on fairy shrimp. Variation in pond depth over natural ranges had no direct effect on notonectid ability to capture fairy shrimp. Decreases in water clarity over natural ranges led to decreased notonectid ability to capture fairy shrimp. This corresponds with the observation that six weeks after the...

Accumulation and effects of lead and cadmium on wood ducks near a mining and smelting complex in Idaho Accumulation and effects of lead and cadmium on wood ducks near a mining and smelting complex in Idaho
A study of wood ducks (Aix sponsa) was conducted along the Coeur d'Alene River system in northern Idaho in 1986 and 1987. Most of this area has been subjected to severe contamination from lead and other metals from mining and smelting since the 1880s. In 1986, a preliminary study of wood duck nesting was conducted in the contaminated area; incubating hens captured in nest boxes were bled...

Roosevelt elk selection of temperate rain forest seral stages in western Washington Roosevelt elk selection of temperate rain forest seral stages in western Washington
We studied habitat selection by Roosevelt elk (Cervus elaphus roosevelti) in a temperate rain forest in the lower Queets River Valley of the western Olympic Peninsula, Washington from June 1986-July 1987. Elk annual home ranges included predominantly unlogged forests protected within Olympic National Park and logged, regenerating forests adjacent to the park. Radio-collared elk selected...

Seasonal use of conservation reserve program lands by white-tailed deer in east-central South Dakota Seasonal use of conservation reserve program lands by white-tailed deer in east-central South Dakota
The Conservation Reserve Program (CRP_, a provision of the 1985 Food Security Act, subsidizes landowners to take highly erodible lands out of cultivation and seed them to perennial cover for 10years. In eastern South Dakota, 0.5 million ha were enrolled in the CRP from 1985 to 1990 (Agric. Stabilization and Conserv. Serv., Brookings, S.D., unpubl. Data), which represents the largest...
