Diving Behavior And Identification Of Sex Of Breeding Atlantic Puffins (Fratercula Arctica), And Nest-Site Characteristics Of Alcids On Petit Manan Island, Maine, Sarah M. Spencer Jan 2012

Diving Behavior And Identification Of Sex Of Breeding Atlantic Puffins (Fratercula Arctica), And Nest-Site Characteristics Of Alcids On Petit Manan Island, Maine, Sarah M. Spencer

Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014

During 2008 – 2009, we quantified foraging behavior of adult Atlantic puffins (Fratercula arctica) by deploying time-depth recorders (TDRs) on 18 adults and collected morphological measurements from 40 adults nesting on Petit Manan Island, Maine. Dive data were successfully retrieved from 5 birds foraging for 14 days in 2008, and 8 birds foraging for 18 days in 2009. Pooling across all birds, a total of 8,097 dives were recorded, with peaks in activity during 0400-0800 and 1600-2000, and no diving between 2100 and 0400. Mean (± SD) dives/bird/day was 276.4 (± 84.7), with dives grouped into bouts lasting …

Many non-native plants in the US have become problematic invaders of native and managed ecosystems, but a new generation of invasive species may be at our doorstep. Here, we review trends in the horticultural trade and invasion patterns of previously introduced species and show that novel species introductions from emerging horticultural trade partners are likely to rapidly increase invasion risk. At the same time, climate change and water restrictions are increasing demand for new types of species adapted to warm and dry environments. This confluence of forces could expose the US to a range of new invasive species, including many …
