Download or read book Bird Use of Arctic Tundra Habitats at Canning River Delta Alaska written by Philip D. Martin and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seasonal patterns of abundance of shorebirds and Lapland Longspur were studied at the Canning River delta. Study plots with differing habitat characteristics were examined: upland, mesic, and lowland tundra, and coastal saline flats. Nesting density was greatest in the mesic plot, but the lowland received intense use by late summer transients; use of the saline habitat was consistently high. Cold weather in July, 1980 probably reduced prey availability. Aquatic habitats, especially polygon troughs, produced a high proportion of the adult insect biomass. Comparison of energetic requirements of birds with the energetic value of their prey supply suggests that food could have limited reproductive success. Availability of both aquatic and terrestrial insects may contribute to high breeding bird density in structurally diverse habitats. Heavy use of wet/flooded tundra by late summer migrants probably reflects abundance of midge (Diptera: chironomidae) larvae in pond sediments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of the harsh conditions that characterize the Arctic, it is a surprisingly fragile ecosystem. The exploration for oil in the Arctic over the past 30 years has had profound effects on the plants and animals that inhabit this frozen clime. The Natural History of an Arctic Oil Field synthesizes decades of research on these myriad impacts. Specialists with years of field experience have contributed to this volume to create the first widely available synopsis of the ecology and wildlife biology of animals and plants living in close association with an actively producing oil field. First widely available synthesis of arctic oil field ecology and wildlife biology Concise yet readable treatment of a diverse polar ecosystem Useful for land managers, policy makers as well as ecologists, and population biologists Chapters authored by recognized authorities and contributions are peer-reviewed for accuracy and scientific rigor Illustrations attractively designed to enhance comprehension
