Breeding chronology, breeding success, distribution and movements of marbled murrelets (Brachyramphus marmoratus) in Desolation Sound, British Columbia / Cecilia Lougheed. : CW69-5/352E-PDF
"The breeding chronology, breeding success, distribution and movements of a Marbled Murrelet (Bruchyrumphus marmorutus) population were studied at Desolation Sound, British Columbia from 1996 to 1998. This threatened seabird (family Alcidae) spends most of its time at sea and feeds on small fish, but is unique among the auks for nesting solitarily in old-growth forest. I integrated several methods to study the chronology and synchrony of breeding by this population. I used radio telemetry to study local survival (and emigration rates) of hatch year (HY) and after hatch year (AHY) birds. I also used at-sea surveys and radio telemetry to study fine scale changes in spatial and temporal distribution of birds on the ocean"--Abstract.
