Attentiveness And Time Budget Of A Pair Of Nesting Wood Storks, E. Scott Clark Jul 1980

Attentiveness And Time Budget Of A Pair Of Nesting Wood Storks, E. Scott Clark

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

An instantaneous sampling system was used to quantify nest attentiveness and time budget of a pair of Wood Storks (Mycteria americana) nesting at the Moore Creek colony on Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge in 1977.

This report addresses the pedestrian and vehicle interaction at Daytona Beach in Volusia County of the State of Florida. This report has consolidated accident data for the period January 1, 1977 through July …
