Research on marbled murrelets in the Desolation Sound area during the 1994 breeding season / Andrew E. Derocher ... [et al.].: CW69-5/257E-PDF

"The goal of this study was to locate and establish a long-term site for multi-faceted research on the ecology and population dynamics of Marbled Murrelets with an emphasis on individually marked birds. Research objectives included: determination of nesting habitat, survival and population size estimations using capture, mark, recapture (CMR) techniques, recruitment rates, reproductive success, marine distribution and abundance, foraging behaviour, and oceanographic features as they affect Marbled Murrelet distribution. In this report we present the results of the 1994 field season and data collected in 1991-93 during pilot studies. Recommendations for future research directions are also presented"--Introd., p. 3.
