Development and evaluation of a terrestrial animal-borne video system for ecological research
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Ashland, Missouri. My research shows that our AVEDs are powerful new tools for ecological research that do not elevate stress levels of captive white-tailed deer and enable ecological research opportunities that traditional methods (e.g., radio telemetry...
Relation of Missouri river flows to sandbar morphology with implications for selected biota
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
.e. an aquatic-terrestrial zone (ATTZ), within the main channel of the lower Missouri River. Predictive models of sandbar morphometry (area, wetted perimeter, elevation, and water-surface slope) were developed to determine how changes in discharge affect...
Intraguild interactions between native and domestic carnivores in central India
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
I determined various factors affecting the resource selection and spatial ecology of the Indian fox Vulpes bengalensis, a small canid endemic to the Indian subcontinent. I collected radiotelemetry data from 32 Indian foxes ...
River restoration in the upper Mississippi River Basin
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
River restoration has become an important management choice to address causes and effects of surface water impairment and river modification in the Upper Mississippi River Basin (UMRB). I report information on individual ...
Wildlife response to spatial and temporal changes in forest habitat
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
A common goal in land-management planning is to describe the relationship between management actions, vegetation and wildlife habitat conditions for large landscapes. Achieving this goal can be challenging because ecological ...
Assemblage structure and shallow-water habitat use by small-bodied fishes at lower Missouri River sandbars
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Populations of many native big-river fishes have declined since channelization and flow regulation contributed to losses of shallow-water habitat (SWH) on lower Missouri River (LMOR). Existing point and wing-dike sandbars represent a potentially...
