Journal ArticleDOI
Boundary Layer Clear-Air Radar Echoes: Origin of Echoes and Accuracy of Derived Winds
James W. Wilson,Tammy M. Weckwerth,Jothiram Vivekanandan,Roger M. Wakimoto,Robert W. Russell +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used dual-wavelength and dual-polarization radars to examine the cause of these echoes and the use of Doppler velocities from the clear-air return to estimate winds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative foraging ecology of planktivorous auklets in relation to ocean physics and prey availability
TL;DR: Tidal speed and direction influenced the distance between the peak numbers of some, but not all, species of auklets, and auklet species were selective about the species of prey taken.
Journal ArticleDOI
Foraging in a fractal environment: Spatial patterns in a marine predator-prey system
TL;DR: Fractal geometry is explored as a possible tool for quantifying this view and for describing spatial dispersion patterns that result from foraging behavior and data on an Alaskan seabird and its zooplanktonic food resources suggest that fractal approaches can yield new ecological insights into complex spatial patterns deriving from animal movements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Massive Swarm Migrations of Dragonflies (Odonata) in Eastern North America
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe massive autumn migrations of dragonflies (Odonata) which occurred at Chicago, Illinois (14 September 1978), Cape May, New Jersey (11 September 1992), and Crescent Beach, Florida (3-5 September 1993).
Journal ArticleDOI
Foraging at a front: Hydrography, zooplankton, and avian planktivory in the northern Bering Sea
TL;DR: Diet samples indicated that the copepod Neocalanus plumchrus was the principal prey taken by least auklets both at the front and away from it, indicating that heavy use of the distant frontal habitat was due to the higher densities of their preferred prey.
