A rat-resistant artificial nest box for cavity-nesting birds
The puaiohi or small Kauai thrush (Myadestes palmeri) is an endangered bird endemic to the island of Kauai, Hawaii. The sole population of about 500 birds is currently restricted to remote, higher elevation areas of the Alakai Plateau. Puaiohi nest primarily on steep streamside cliffs, and their distribution and abundance are limited by availability of suitable nesting sites. Black rats (Rattus...
متن کاملUse of large Acacia trees by the cavity dwelling Black-tailed Tree Rat in the Southern Kalahari
Recent extensive harvesting of large, often dead Acacia trees in arid savanna of southern Africa is cause for concern about the conservation status of the arid savanna and its animal community. We mapped vegetation and nests of the Black-tailed Tree Rat Thallomys nigricauda to assess the extent to which the rats depend on particular tree species and on the existence of dead, standing trees. The...
متن کاملThe cavity approach for Steiner trees Packing problems
The Belief Propagation approximation, or cavity method, has been recently applied to several combinatorial optimization problems in its zero-temperature implementation, the Max-Sum algorithm. In particular, recent developments to solve the Edge-Disjoint paths problem and the Prize collecting Steiner tree Problem on graphs have shown remarkable results for several classes of graphs and for bench...
متن کاملUse of Arbutus menziesii by Cavity-nesting Birds
As part of a larger study of wildlife habitat associations in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests of northwestern California, I recorded characteristics of nest sites used by 16 species of cavity-nesting birds. Pacific madrone (Arbutus menziesii) contributed only 8% of the basal area of the stands I studied, but 24% of all cavity nests were in madrone. Although nests were distributed am...
متن کاملThe Effects of Postfire Salvage Logging on Cavity-nesting Birds
We investigated the effects of postfire salvage logging on cavity-nesting birds by comparing nest densities and patterns of nest reuse over a three-year period in seven logged and eight unlogged patches of mixed-conifer forest in the Blackfoot-Clearwater Wildlife Management Area, Montana. We found 563 active nests of 18 cavity-nesting birds; all species were found nesting in the uncut burned fo...
