The role of predation in nesting success of black brant and lesser snow geese
Principal Investigator: Armstrong, Terry
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1991
Summary: This ongoing study will involve observing glaucous gulls as they prey on nests of black brant and lesser snow geese. I will attempt to determine why the gulls seem to be more successful when attacking the nests of brant than those of snow geese. I will examine the feeding behaviour of the gulls and the defense behaviour of the geese. I will also examine the nesting success and clutch sizes of b...

Biology, Ecology and Cold Tolerance of Arctic Insects
Principal Investigator: Ring, Richard A.
Licensed Year(s): 1993 1992 1990 1987
Summary: The researcher and his team will collect and identify arctic insects. Such studies should lead to a better understanding of food webs in Arctic ecosystems which are often regarded as fragile but complex, and could prove useful in monitoring more subtle effects on food chains brought about by disruption of the habitat by physical or chemical forces....
