title: Willow and Aspen in the Ecology of Beaver on Sagehen Creek, California

description: DOCTORATE DISSERTATION: A four year study was made of the introduced beaver on Sagehen Creek, a tributary of the Little Truckee River, in the northern Sierra Nevada. The purpose of the investigation was to examine and compare utilization of willow and aspen in colonies where the supplies were strikingly different. Aspen, which arose following logging fires, was cut by the beaver as long as available. The heaviest cutting occurred close to shore and was very light at distances of more than 100 feet from the water's edge. The amount of aspen, measured in terms of weight of bark and twigs, used by a beaver was correlated roughly with availability, being highest where aspen was most available, lowest where least available. The beavers cut most aspen during the late summer and early fall when they were storing their winter food supplies. In addition to this major rhythm in activity, an unexplained coincidence of minor spurts and lags in cutting was noted in two colonies over five miles apart. Although aspen sprouts after cutting, the new shoots were eaten by sheep which grazed the Sagehen basin during the summer. Consequently, the supply is constantly diminishing, primarily because of beaver cutting, secondarily because sheep kill the new sprouts. As aspen diminished in abundance the beavers cut increasing amounts of willow. Some willow, however, was cut even in areas where aspen was still abundant. Willow cutting exceeded willow growth in two of the three beaver colonies studied. Although it is a vigorous sprouter, willow may be locally exhausted by heavy use and the beaver then gradually shift to adjacent sites. Willow on the original sites can then recover. Following the elimination of aspen, the beaver population on this stream will probably stabilize itself at a level considerably below its peak and will subsist on willow, shifting its sites of cutting on a type of rotational sustained yield basis as local sites are exhausted.

title: Nesting Behavior and Food Habits of Goshawks in the Sierra Nevada

description: MASTERS THESIS: An active goshawk nest was located in a dense stand of lodgepole pine near Donner Lake, Nevada County, California. Activities of the three young and parents were watched Division of labor between the adult male and female was marked. During the initial stages of the study the female remained close to the nest day and night. She left only to receive food from the male, to capture prey near the nest, to cache prey items and collect sprigs to bring to the nest. Her activity changed as the season progressed. Brooding time per day decreased and then ceased altogether; time spent near the nest decreased. After June 30, the female left the nest area to hunt. The female s sprig collecting activity, apparently a displacement behavior, reached a peak as brooding ceased. The male was responsible for capturing 85 percent of the food for the brood, but only the female fed the young... The female aggressively defended the nest area from human intruders but the male showed little concern. The transfer of prey items from male to female occurred throughout the study with evidence of aggression of her part after the food was exchanged. It is postulated that this aggression of the female toward the male is the mechanism which caused increased delivery of prey items by the male to meet the food demands of the young. Goshawks were observed to capture prey by 1. swooping from a hidden position, and 2. by searching in the grass of a small pond for hidden ducklings. Large animals appeared to be cached and periodically eaten by the male before being brought to the nest; small prey were delivered to the nest soon after capture. Nestling birds accounted for the largest part of the goshawks summer diet. Daily prey weights consumed by the nestlings in the course of the study were graphed. The peaking trend of the food consumption curve is caused by the food items contributed by the female. Factors responsible for this increased foraging activity of the female are 1. prey abundance in the nest area and 2. a behavioral change causing the female to hunt outside the nest area

title: The Ecology and Food Habits of the Sculpin (Cottus beldingi) in Relation to the Eastern Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis)

description: MASTERS THESIS: 1. The objective of this study was to determine whether the sculpin competes with trout for food and preys on their eggs and young. The study was conducted during the fall and winter of 1951-52. 2 Large sculpins survive better on bottoms of rubble and boulders. 3. Bottom dwelling aquatic insects constituted 99.4 percent of the sculpins diet. The chief foods of sculpins were the Diptera, Trichoptera, Ephemeroptera, and Plecoptera. The Diptera and Trichoptera were the important fall foods of sculpins. The Ephemeroptera were the important winter food of sculpins. Diptera were the principal food of sculpins less than 59 mm. 4. Sculpins larger than 80mm used the large nymphs of the Trichoptera, Ephemeroptera, and Plecoptera for food. 5. The average number of empty stomachs was greatest in December and more stomachs of small sculpins were found empty than large sculpins. The average volume for sculpin stomachs with food was greatest in February. The average number of food items eaten by sculpins decreased slightly between October and April. 6. Age groups . Were identified in a length frequency histogram constructed for the sculpins collected during October and November Maturing males averaged 85.0mm in length. Maturing females averaged 73.6 mm in length. 7 Eastern brook trout spawning did not begin at once in all sections of the stream but progressed gradually downstream. In the middle portion of the stream, spawning lasted from October 7 to November 7. Eastern brook trout nests were found mainly on the fringes of riffles. 8. As evidenced by this study, sculpins are not a serious predator of trout eggs or trout young. Eastern brook trout are an important predator of sculpins. 9. Sculpins compete with eastern brook trout for food. The aquatic foods eaten by eastern brook trout were the same foods eaten by sculpins. Consumption of terrestrial organisms and sculpins by eastern brook trout reduces food competition with sculpins. 10. Sculpins and eastern brook trout do not compete for shelter.

title: Inventory of the Lepidoptera of the Stebbins Cold Canyon Reserve

description: Title: Inventory of the Lepidoptera of the Stebbins Cold Canyon Reserve Goals: 1. Compile an inventory of the Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies)of the Stebbins Cold Canyon Reserve, including adult flight periods and larval host plants, if possible 2. Prepare a synoptic collection of the Lepidoptera to be housed in the Bohart Museum of Entomology, UC Davis. 3. Compare the inventory with Lepidoptera surveys from other sites. Outline of Proposed Research: Collections will be made primarily at night using a portable blacklight to illuminate a sheet suspended from a rope to attract nocturnal species. Up to two night time visits per month will be made. Additional daytime collections and visual surveys may be made to complement the night time collections. Any immatures that are collected will be taken to Davis with a small amount of host plant material to attempt rearing them to adults. Adult specimens will be examined and identified, with representatives of the species pinned, spread and labeled and deposited in a synoptic collection at the Bohart Museum of Entomology, UC Davis. Some specimens will be loaned or gifted to specialists for help with identification or other legitimate research purposes. Collection data will be submitted annually to the reserve manager and associated personnel, to the California data base of Lepidoptera, to the Lepidopterists' Society, and to other lepidopterists. As many as two graduate or undergraduate students and two non-University volunteers may accompany the P.I. on some visits. Visits cannot be scheduled in advance due to the chance of unfavorable weather conditions. The research group will report each visit by logging in at the reserve entry gate. NOTE: No protect Lepidoptera species are known or suspected to occur in the Reserve. If any are detected, they will not be collected.

title: elephant seal tag-resight

description: Northern elephant seals recolonized central California in the 1950s and 1960s after being extirpated by hunters during the 19th century. Pupping began at Año Nuevo Island in 1961 and expanded to the adjacent mainland in 1975. Since 1967, researchers from the University of California, Santa Cruz, and the Smithsonian Institution have been placing numbered cattle ear tags in the flippers of pups born at Año Nuevo, allowing tracking of individuals over many years. Sightings of tagged individuals produce estimates of lifespan, movements between beaches and rookeries, and models of population growth. From 1967-2007, 16609 pups were tagged at Año Nuevo, and 1559 of these have been resighted. The oldest animal observed was a 21-years old female (born in 1984 and seen raising a pup in 2005), and two different females have been seen in 14 different years (both were still alive as of mid-2007). The main goal of the tag-resight project is to document survival and dispersal during the current population growth phase, to provide a baseline against which to compare future demography, after the population stabilizes or declines. It is part of a broader research effort covering many aspects of breeding behavior, physiology, foraging, and migration of elephant seals.

title: pinniped population monitoring

description: Año Nuevo Island and the adjacent mainland host a large pinniped colony, including four different species: the northern elephant seal, northern sea lion, California sea lion, and harbor seal. Since 1967, researchers from the University of California, Santa Cruz, and the Smithsonian Institution have been doing regular counts of all individuals of all four throughout the colony; particular attention is focused on counts of breeding females and pups of the elephant seal and northern sea lion. The number of elephant seal pups born annually at Año Nuevo was below 200 in 1968, but grew steadily until 1995; since then it has stabilized at 2600-2800. The number of northern sea lion pups was as high as 400 yearly in the late 1960s, but has fallen to 200-250 since. California sea lions have few pups at Año Nuevo, but they are the most numerous of the four species, with more than 10,000 observed on some occasions. Harbor seals breed routinely on the island, but in small numbers (and breeding females are shy and hard to count). A fifth species, the northern fur seal, was recorded on several occasions in the mid-1970s.
