title: Studies in the Ecology of Mason Bog, Sagehen Creek, California

description: MASTERS THESIS: Research was conducted in Mason Bog, which consists of a non-Sphanum substrate and supports a population of perennials including both California sundews. Species distributions and associations will be examined and compared with distributions of various site parameters: pH, water table, temperature, and surface slope. The application of available evapotranspiration and weather data to the bog will be discussed. The two Droseras shall be further examined due to their sympatry in Mason Bog. Germination trials to determine Drosera temperature requirements may help to clarify the temperature regime of Mason Bog. Comparisons between seed sites within California, both for seed germination and plant morphology, can be used to place Mason Bog Drosera populations within the range of California variability.

title: An Experimental Evaluation of Two Trout Strain Crosses

description: MASTERS THESIS: By crossing various inbred, conspecific strains (of fish), there is the possibility that some progeny will show increased survival and will remain readily catchable. As part of a program to evaluate the quality of such hatchery crosses, three laboratory exsperiments and one field study were undertaken to assess some of the various vigor qualities which may contribute to the subsistence and perpetuation of the fish after planting. The main factors considered in formulating these experiments were those of feasibility and ecological significance. The separate experiments all compared the same strains on a relative basis with the parental strains. Substrate preference, stamina, predation response, and angler yield were ultimately chosen as criteria to evaluate the relative fitness and management potential of the crossbred strains. (Includes a literature review)

title: Breeding Biology and Feeding Patterns of the Oregon Junco in Two Sierra Nevada Habitats

description: DOCTORATE DISSERTATION: The breeding biology and feeding patterns of the Oregon junco (Junco hyemalis thurberi) were studied in the Sagehen Creek basin in the central Sierra Nevadas of California, from Oct 1968 through July 1972. Breeding populations were followed in the yellow pine forest on the basin ridges and in the meadow areas along the basin bottom...... This project was designed to study the breeding ecology of the Oregon junco, and to compare populations in the forest and meadow habitats. In addition to breeding history, feeding data were recorded in these two habitats in an effort to determine how juncos utilized the habitats for obtaining food and the ease with which they obtained food.

title: The Role of Weasel Predation in Cyclic Population Changes of the Montane Vole (Microtus montanus)

description: DOCTORATE DISSERTATION: Weasels are probably the most widespread and common carnivores that prey extensively on voles and lemmings....... In April 1966 at Sagehen Creek in the Sierra Nevada, California, I found that 15 per cent of the winter nests of montane voles (Microtus montanus) exposed as the snow melted had been occupied by weasels. The investigation reported here grew out of this observation.

title: Avian Species Diversity and Habitat Use in Forests of the Sierra Nevada, California

description: DOCTORATE DISSERTATION: Patterns of species diversity in avian communities were examined in a successional sequence of post-burn conifer forest at mid-elevation in the Sierra Nevada in central California from 1969 to 1971. Habitats representative of the early (brush), middle (brush conifer) and late (forest) stages of secondary succession were studied intensively. I. In this study, avian communities in three representative seral stages of secondary forest succession were studied intensively for three years, 1969 through 1971, in the Sierra Nevada of California. Species diversity of birds relative to vegetational structure, insect productivity, habitat use and diet were examined as factors determining species diversity. This paper deals with the first two aspects. II. Increase in species numbers by addition to existing guilds is particularly interesting because the matrix of possible competitive interactions between the matrix of possible competitive interactions between species becomes progressively more complex. This study is an attempt to test these theories as they apply to the numbers of species of birds in two guilds of birds which occur in differently aged habitats of the guild on foraging substrates and foods, and how do they compare with regard to niche breadth and specialization? How do they differ between guilds?

title: Behavior and Ecology of the American Kestrel (Falco sparverius)

description: DOCTORATE DISSERTATION: The Kestrel is probably the most abundant raptor in the Western Hemispere. One would predict, therefore, that the capacity for environmental adjustment by Kestrels is high. This dissertation, in part, attempts to understand better the nature of Kestrel adaptation and adjustment to the environment. The study describes, discusses, and compares in different habitats the natural history of Kestrels during their breeding season in the Sierra of California. Because Kestrels inhabited two different adjacent ecosystems inthe area of study, a comparative approach may facilitate an understanding of Kestrel biology.

title: Dominance Relationships and Comparative Ecology of Two Sympatric Chipmunks (Eutamias)

description: MASTERS THESIS: This study investigates the possible role of competition in determining the distribution of these chipmunks (Eutamias speciosus frater and E. amoenus monoensis). The comparative ecology of the two species is studied in an area of sympatry to determine whether they are utilizing resources in the same manner, and their dominance relationships are studied to determine whether one species can interfere with the other's access to resources.

title: Movements and Activities of Beavers, Castor canadensis, on Sagehen Creek, California

description: MASTERS THESIS: The purpose of this research was to study the short term movement and activity patterns of two beaver colonies at Sagehen Creek, California. The daytime resting behavior and lenght of activity period were also studied. Radio, tracking, oberservations and live trapping were the methods used to collect the data. Notes on colony composition, area and a comparison of movement and activity patterns between adults and juveniles within a colony were recorded. The two colonies were compared as to area, composition and general activity patterns. The mammals, birds, amphibians and reptiles associated with each colony were also noted. An assessment of the use of radio-tracking as a method in the study of beaver ecology was also considered.

title: Social Structure of Chipmunk Populations and its Relation to Resource Availability and Exploitation

description: DOCTORATE DISSERTATION: Research was to note differences in productivity between chipmunk populations located in interior, more continental populations from those in coastal, more maritime populations. I. Study site and methods are described. II. Population structural differences are found between chipmunk populations in the Coast Range and the Sierra Nevada. Litter size variation between species, and age specific fecundity of females within and between years are shown. Life table analyses are performed and life history and reproductive parameters are then compared to those of other chipmunk spc. Latitudinal trends are also analyzed. III. Ontogenetic and annual cyclic changes in reproductive state and weight will be analyzed for both sexes. The reproductive seasonal phenology of Eutamia sonomae will be compared to those of other species of Eutamias. Male reproductive strategies in Eutamias are proposed and the environmental and evolutionary regimes that have selected for these are discussed. Eutamias is then compared in its mating social system with other N. American sciurids.

title: The Distribution and Abundance of Furbearers in the Mountainous Regions of California

description: MASTERS THESIS: A survey of existing information was conducted on the distribution and abundance of the ringtail, marten, fisher, wolverine, river otter, and the red fox. This group includes little known furbearers of California that require special management. It is not the purpose of this paper to be a definitive statement of the distribution and abundance of these furbearers. It is instead only a contribution towards comprehensive study of this neglected group of mammals. I have summarized the available data on these species. From the information presented here an appraisal of their current status can be made, and hopefully measures will be taken to fill the gaps in knowledge.
