Influence of human development and predators on nest survival of tundra birds, Arctic Coastal Plain, Alaska
|
US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)
-
Nest predation may influence population dynamics of birds on the Arctic Coastal Plain (ACP) of Alaska. Anthropogenic development on the ACP is increasing, which may attract nest predators by providing artificial sources of food, perches, den sites, and nest sites. Enhanced populations or concentrations of human-subsidized predators may reduce nest survival for tundra-nesting birds. In this...

Migration and Habitat Use by Threatened Spectacled Eiders in the Eastern Chukchi Near and Offshore Environment (AK-09-03)
|
US Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM)
-
Research focusing on the distribution and timing of habitat use by the threatened (ESA) Spectacled Eiders was identified as an information need at the COMIDA workshop held on Nov. 1-3, 2006. Lease sales are planned for the Chukchi Sea Planning Area in 2010 and 2012. This information will be used for ESA Section 7 consultations, NEPA analyses, Exploration Plans, DPPs and other documentation. The...

Winter Ecology of Stellers Eiders and Other Seaducks in western Alaska
|
US Geological Survey (USGS)
-
Declines in the breeding population of Steller's eiders (STEI) in Alaska have resulted in its listing of as threatened under the provisions of the Endangered Species Act. Exposure to petroleum-based hydrocarbons from boating or fishing activities and accidental oil spills is cause for concern at wintering areas of STEI in Alaska. Thus, the wintering activity and habitat selection of STEI may...

Divoky had conducted observational research on Cooper Island every summer for almost four decades. He focused on Black Guillemots, but also observed other seabirds and polar bears.
Cooper Island is the largest Black Guillemot colony in Alaska, and the most northerly breeding site for Horned Puffins. The Arctic Tern colony on the island was, until recently, the largest on the northern coast...

Much pelagic seabird data remains in individual datasets. While some investigators can analyze their own data sets for specific purposes, the bulk of pelagic seabird data are inaccessible to any one user group. We continue to combine all available data into a standardized database, and we are developing tools and products to map and interpret these data. This provides scientists, resource...
