A warbler in trouble: Dendroica cerulea A warbler in trouble: Dendroica cerulea

The Cerulean Warbler, like other Neotropical migrants, has suffered extensive loss of breeding habitat during the past century. It differs from many other migrants in its preference for mature floodplain forest with tall trees, a habitat that has become scarce over much of the warbler's original nesting range. Sensitivity to fragmentation within remaining suitable tracts places this...

Application of a computer simulation model to migrating white-fronted geese in the Klamath Basin Application of a computer simulation model to migrating white-fronted geese in the Klamath Basin

The Pacific greater white-fronted goose (Anser albifrons) population has declined precipitously over the past 20 years. Loss of wetland habitat in California wintering areas has had a significant effect on the population, so recovery of the population may depend on innovative management of the few remaining wetlands. A computer simulation model, REFMOD, was applied to greater white...
