Abstract:
Policy-makers increasingly need to use scientific data that are imprecise. This problem is particularly apparent for marine mammal management issues, where practical research constraints leave scientists and managers with the problem of drawing inference from sparse data. Effective use of such data therefore places great demands on our methods of data analysis and statistical inference. In this thesis I introduce novel Bayesian methods for the analysis of data on marine mammal abundance and trends. Bayesian methods are applied to a suite of case studies to inform current management issues of i

Abstract:
Populations of wild birds and mammals are often harvested for sport, subsistence or commerce. Sustainable exploitation is an important aspect of environmental management and is critical to human wellbeing. However, our inability to sustainably harvest even well studied populations is often due to poor demographic data and a lack of understanding of critical biological processes. A key component of sustainable harvesting is the density-dependant feedback between vital rates (births, deaths, immigration and emigration) and population density, as this mechanism provides populations with the capac

The small mammal population of a restricted study area was live-trapped on the University farm at Western Kentucky University from November 1984 through November 1985.

Also caught were Mus musculus and Blarina brevicauda. The members of the two major genera were examined for population size and dynamics.

Research on the chronic effects of toxic chemicals on individuals, populations, communities, and ecosystems is imperative to regulate pollutants and preserve threatened species and habitats.

Abstract:
Natural habitat in the eastern United States has diminished over the past century because of the effects of invasive species. Both plant and animal invaders can alter habitat structure and may decrease survival of native species. The degree to which an invasive species alters ecosystem function depends on the functional characteristics of affected species and the resulting cascading effects. The loss of important native species, such as foundation species, can potentially influence the structure and distribution of animal communities because of the foundation species' unique ecosystem roles.
