  • Fish Surface Activity and Pursuit-Plunging by Olivaceous Cormorants
    SHORT COMMUNICATIONS 327 At the Missouri site, eagles had access to large numbers of crippled and dead geese, which presumably were the primary source oflead shot. In South Dakota, Steenhof(1976) reported finding waterfowl remains in 285 of 363 egested pellets including 10 (2.7%) with lead shot. Based upon her observations, she concluded eagles obtained most of the waterfowl in upland fields. Likewise, at our Nebraska site, eagles ate waterfowl that had been feeding in upland fields (obtained by kleptoparasitizing other raptors [Jorde and Lingle, in press]). In March 1980, they also scavenged waterfowl that had died of avian cholera (Lingle and Krapu 1986). Infrequent ingestion of lead shot by Bald Eagles in Nebraska probably stems from a low incidence of lead shot among waterfowl wintering along the Platte and North Platte rivers. The frequency of occurrence of lead shot in wintering waterfowl in Nebraska is not known; however, only about 1% of waterfowl wintering in the Texas High Plains region during the same period had lead shot in their digestive tracts (Wallace et al. 1983). It is probable that field-feeding Mallards obtained in lightly hunted uplands contain fewer lead shot than cripples or segments of the population feeding principally in wetlands where hunting activity and lead shot contamination arc likely to be concentrated.

    Sports & Culture in Chiloé Programa : Outdoors and Culture in Chiloe island. Nido de Aguilas’ week without walls provide to students some unique teaching sessions in the great outdoor. Chiloe is a land of traditions, as often when we talk about island they remain on a different rhythm than the main land. This is what we will discover on these days but also get immerged in the incredible nature and specific ecosystem of this northern Patagonia island. We will be practicing new activities and get confident in: Hiking, kayaking, Biking, Horse riding and at the same time get to discover what makes Chiloe so special : the people who live here from the native Huiliche to settlers who arrived during 20th century but also people from different areas of Chile who have come here for the salmon farming rush. There is a lot ot learn about this beautiful island and you can be sure you will be in the best hands for such a purpose.

The objective of this study was to know the catchment area, river basin and the main physical, chemical and biological characteristics of these humic lakes. The trophic status, the actual loading, and the mass balances of phosphorus and nitrogen were determined in relation to anthropogenic activities. Lakes Cucao and Huillinco were characterized by a marine influence. All the lakes had brown coloured waters, caused by humic substances, which limit their transparency. Lake Natri was the deepest (58 m), whereas Lake Tepuhueico had the shallowest depth (25 m). Total phosphorus and nitrogen fluctuated between 23.5 and 35 µg L-1 and 197 and 380 µg L-1 (annual average) in lakes Natri, Tepuhueico and Tarahuín, respectively. Lakes Cucao and Huillinco showed extremely high concentrations of total nitrogen (annual average => 3,000 µg L-1) and total phosphorus (= 223 and 497 µg L-1), and were classified as hyper-eutrophic.

Abstract Submerged floating tunnels (SFTs) are innovative structural solutions to waterway crossings, such as sea-straits. As the width and depth of straits increase, the conventional structures such as cable-supported bridges, underground tunnels or immersed tunnels become uneconomical alternatives. In this thesis, we will understand how Submerged Floating Tunnels work, how they are designed and constructed, find advantages and disadvantages and, finally, when all that is clear, we will evaluate the possible application of this type of crossing on the Chacao Channel.

    Genetic variability and structure of the Olive Field Mouse: a sigmodontine rodent in a biodiversity hotspot of southern Chile Paulo S. Zepeda1, Enrique Rodríguez-Serrano2, Fernando Torres-Pérez3, Juan L. Celis-Diez4 and R Eduardo Palma1 1 Laboratorio de Biología Evolutiva, Departamento de Ecología, Facultad de Ciencias Biológicas, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, Santiago de Chile, Chile 2 Departamento de Zoología, Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Oceanográficas, Universidad de Concepción, Concepción, Chile 3 Instituto de Biología, Facultad de Ciencias, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaiso, Valparaiso, Chile 4 Escuela de Agronomía, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, Valparaiso, Chile ABSTRACT The temperate rainforests of southern Chile, a recognized biodiversity hotspot, were significantly affected by Pleistocene glacial cycles in their southern portion and have been severely disrupted mainly due to recent human activities. Additionally, the landscape is characterized by a series of potential barriers to gene flow, such as the Chacao Channel, Cordillera de Piuche in Chiloé and both the Ancud and the Corcovado gulfs. We used mitochondrial DNA sequences and microsatellite data across several populations to evaluate the genetic variability and structure of the sigmodontine rodent Abrothrix olivacea brachiotis, one of the most common species of small mammals and an inhabitant of these biodiverse forests. Sequencing data showed that along with the recovery of high haplotype variation for this species, there was a low nucleotide diversity between haplotypes, showing no genetic differences between the Chiloé Island and continental populations in southern Chile or through any other geographic barrier in the study area. However, microsatellite data exhibited some level of population structuring. The most evident clusterings were those of the Chiloé Island and that of Submitted 23 August 2018 Accepted 13 April 2019 North Patagonia.
