Effects of road management on movement and survival of Roosevelt elk Effects of road management on movement and survival of Roosevelt elk
Road closures frequently are used to manage for Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni), but no studies have evaluated the effects of limited vehicle access on movements and survival of Roosevelt elk (C. elaphus roosevelti). We studied movements and survival of female Roosevelt elk before Road Management Areas (RMA) were designated, and during limited vehicular access from 1991 to...

Probable causes of nesting failures in Oregon's bald eagle population Probable causes of nesting failures in Oregon's bald eagle population
During the last 4 decades, numerous studies on a variety of raptor species have described breeding success and productivity, but few studies have reported the causes of nesting failures. Newton (1979:358) described causes of nesting failures for 6 species of raptors, but only 2 of these species (bald eagle [Haliaeetus leucocephalus], prairie falcon [Falco mexicanus]) inhabit North...

Environmental contaminants in bald eagles in the Columbia River Estuary Environmental contaminants in bald eagles in the Columbia River Estuary
Eggs, blood, and carcasses of bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) and fish were collected and breeding success of eagles was monitored in the Columbia River estuary, 1980-87, to determine if contaminants were having an effect on productivity. High levels of dichloro diphenyl dichloroethylene (DDE), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's), and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) were...

Selenium in wetlands and waterfowl foods at Kesterson Reservoir, California, 1984 Selenium in wetlands and waterfowl foods at Kesterson Reservoir, California, 1984
Kesterson Reservoir (Kesterson) received subsurface agricultural drainwater containing high levels of salts and selenium from farmland in the San Joaquin Valley of California. The accumulation of selenium in wetlands and waterfowl foods at Kesterson was investigated during May, August, and December of 1984. High concentrations of selenium were found in water, sediments, terrestrial and...
