Abstract:

Individuals of a given population share more behavioural traits with each other than with members of other populations. For example, in humans, traditions are specific to regions or countries. These cultural relationships can tell us about the history of the populations, their origin and the amount of exchange between them. In birds, regional dialects have been described in many species. However, the mechanisms with which dialects form in populations is not fully understood because it is difficult to analyse experimentally. Translocated populations, with their known histories, offer an opportu

Abstract:

Birds are a major pest in vineyards both in New Zealand and overseas. There is a need for new behavioural research on birds' foraging habits and feeding preferences in vineyards, as much of the literature to date is anecdotal. Research on cues to birds' feeding will provide a basis on which new deterrent and control strategies can be devised. Spatial-and temporal bird damage in a small vineyard block was mapped to find if damage was correlated with grape maturity and environmental factors. Vineyard and field observations of bird behaviour using video technology combined with preference experim

Abstract:

In birds, song can evolve quickly through cultural transmission and due to errors in the learning process may result in regional dialects. A lack of dialectal recognition may be a critical component of reproductive isolation through female mate preference. I investigated the role of cultural divergence in reproductive isolation in a widespread Neotropical passerine the rufous-collared sparrow (Zonotrichia capensis). In Chapter II, I investigated, the role of female preference for and male territorial response towards, local and non-local dialects in two allopatric populations. Females in both

Abstract:

The song thrush (Turdus philomelos) was introduced to New Zealand from Britain during the mid 19th century and has become one of the most common terrestrial bird species in New Zealand. In this study, I surveyed a range of life-history traits in New Zealand song thrushes for comparison with traits of British thrushes. Clutch size, egg size and nest size have decreased, while the nestling period is shorter and the incubation period longer. This combination of changes suggests birds are investing less energy into each reproductive bout. Birds also appear unable to raise large broods, as nestling

I have always approached my paintings with confidence. Mark making has always been my strength, particularly in drawing, and I feel this comes through in my gestural use of the paint. I also believe I approach paintings in a trial and error manner, where experimentation has precedence over concept. To remain in the moment and focused on what I am doing at that moment is a fundamental base of both my process and, interestingly what the resulting image translates to the viewer. To know this, and to remain suspended in this moment requires a foundation of trust within my capabilities and myself.

Then the results and analysis of the numerical simulations are presented.

Louse collections were made to look for incidences of host-specific lice occurring on the "wrong" host ("straggling"). Straggling was observed, implying that lice disperse among host species. Thus, opportunity for louse dispersal (or lack thereof) does not govern the host-sp

Replicate adaptive radiations occur when lineages repeatedly radiate and fill new but similar niches and converge phenotypically. While this is commonly seen in traditional island systems, it may also be present in host-parasite relationships, where hosts serve as islands. In a recent article in BMC Biology, Johnson and colleagues have produced the most extensive phylogeny of the avian lice (Ischnocera) to date, and find evidence for this pattern. This study opens the door to exploring adaptive radiations from a novel host-parasite perspective.See research article: http://www.biomedcentral.com

Abstract:

Airplanes have a risk of encounter birds while flying, taking off or landing and to ensure a safe flight the engines have to sustain functionality after one or several bird strikes; one vital part in the engine is the first stage rotor and hence it has to withstand bird strikes. Commercial finite element codes with explicit time marching techniques are commonly used today but they can be time-consuming and therefore a faster analytical method is sought. An analytical method is suitable for comparison of rotor blades in an early design process. The force during the bird strike was divided into

In its exploration of corruption, ageing and the effects of time, the play offers a magnificent study of the dark side of the American dreams of youth and fame.Thi
