Effects of Arctic Alaska Oil Development on Brant and Snow Geese
Black brant (Branta bernicla nigricans) and lesser snow geese (Chen c. caerulescens) breeding in and near arctic Alaska oil fields could be affected by oil development actions such as releases of contaminants, alteration of tundra surfaces, creation of impoundments, and human activities. These actions could affect geese directly (e.g., through oil spills) or indirectly (e.g., by altering food supplies or predator populations). Studies to date ind…
Response of Pacific Loons ( Gavia Pacifica ) to Impoundments at Prudhoe Bay, Alaska
Reproductive success and foraging effort of Pacific loons (Gavia pacifica) were compared between impoundments and natural ponds in the Prudhoe Bay oil field, Alaska, in 1992 and 1993. Pacific loons successfully reproduced on both impoundments and ponds. Though success tended to be lower on impoundments, no significant differences were detected between the two water body types. The principal cause of reproductive failure on both impoundments and p…
Disappearance of the Steller's Eider from the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, Alaska
The Steller's eider (Polysticta stelleri) is apparently extinct as a breeding bird on the Yukon-Kuskokwim (Y-K) delta, one of two areas in Alaska where it was a regular breeder. Once considered a common breeding bird on the Y-K delta it has not been found nesting since 1975, despite recent extensive geographic coverage of waterfowl habitats and ground searches of historically important nesting areas. The Y-K delta was the only known subarctic bre…
