Habitat on Mars
… in this thesis explores ways to develop a habitat for human settlement on Mars. Currently, most designs for living on Mars focus primarily on survival and emphasize the technological aspects necessary for sustaining life. However, there is a lack of holistic consideration for what life on …

Evaluation of landscape level habitat characteristics of golden eagle habitat in Northwestern Mexico
… This reduction is linked to changes in their habitat caused by human activities. Golden eagles inhabit an extensive range of environments (Watson 1997, Kochert et al. 2002). In the American Continent, the golden eagle's range encompasses Alaska, Canada, the United States and the Northern and …

Predicting habitat suitability for American woodcock and landscape-level assessment of habitat in West Virginia
… were to (1) develop models to predict potential habitat suitability for woodcock over large geographic areas in West Virginia (Chapter 4), (2) quantify and describe the local and landscape structural components and spatial patterns of woodcock habitat in the state (Chapter 3), and (3) to …

Variation In Habitat Thresholds: An Analysis Of Minimum Habitat Requirements Of North American Breeding Birds
… or persistence probability at particular habitat amounts. These `extinction thresholds' could be translated to conservation targets, under the condition that we can derive generalities. I investigated the level of variation in landscape-level habitat thresholds for a suite of North …

Habitat selection of three rodents in a frequently burned boreal environment : productivity and habitat diversity
… the control. These were subsequently treated as habitats for purposes of comparison with small mammal distributions. The burned area showed a greater productivity in flowers and fruits although total productivity in the control area was higher due to a large contribution from the non-vascular …

Developing Habitat Suitability Criteria for Individual Species and Habitat Guilds in the Shenandoah River Basin
… An often-suggested approach has been to use habitat guilds to incorporate the diversity found in these systems. My goal is to determine the feasibility of developing habitat suitability criteria (HSC) for the entire fish assemblage in the North and South Fork Shenandoah River, Virginia, using …

Influence of habitat and bat activity on moth community composition and seasonal phenology across habitat types
… conservation strategies. Studies of moth habitat use have primarily focused on access to host plants used by specific moth species. How vegetation structure influences moth communities within and between habitats and mediates the activity of insectivorous bats is understudied. Previous …

Plant-habitat interactions in brackish marshes
… substances from the water and providing habitat. By buffering a large part of the arriving flow velocity, attenuating wave energy and serving as erosion control for riverbanks, tidal marshes furthermore reduce the destructive effects of storm surges and storm waves and thus contribute to …

Floating seaweed as ephemeral neustonic habitat
… results of this PhD thesis demonstrate that the habitat formed by floating seaweeds is very complex. Although the presence of floating seaweeds in the neuston can, to a certain degree, be seasonally predicted (storms, seasonal release of fertile structures), the habitat that they form is still …

Habitat Selection by Yellow -Headed Blackbirds
… birds select breeding sites. I investigated habitat selection at various spatial scales in a neotropical migrant, the Yellow-headed Blackbirds (Xanthocephalus xanthocephalus). This research was conducted in two declining populations in northeastern Illinois. I found that at the largest …

Habitat connectivity and spotted owl population dynamics
The ecological consequences of habitat fragmentation include the direct effects of habitat loss and the indirect effects of reduced inter-patch dispersal. I examine these consequences of habitat fragmentation through two separate studies. The first study measures habitat connectivity through the …
