Winter bird densities and eastern wood-pewee breeding demography across a savanna-woodland-forest gradient in the Missouri Ozarks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
and woodland is needed to inform management. Our objective was to determine densities of common winter migrants and resident birds in savannas, woodlands, and non-managed forests in the Missouri Ozark Highlands. We estimated detection probabilities...
Enhancing bluegill production through least-cost diet development and novel rearing strategies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Amidst growing demand for large, food-size bluegill Lepomis macrochirus, lack of an affordable, balanced diet and inadequate rearing technologies remain the major concerns of bluegill producers seeking to run profitable ...
The demography of Atlantic brant (Branta bernicla hrota)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
for greatest understanding of population level processes and to inform prioritization of conservation efforts for Atlantic brant. Future brant research should focus on nutrient dynamics of James Bay staging areas, identifying core breeding areas and quantifying...
Development and validation of standardized sampling protocols for assessing freshwater mussel populations in Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
step in assessing populations. We surveyed 14 sites in the Meramec River Basin in East-central Missouri to determine the effectiveness of visual sampling methods and to determine the effects of habitat variability on the effectiveness of these methods...
