  • Consolidation in Food Retailing: Prospects for Consumers & Grocery Suppliers
    18 Economic Research Service/USDA Agricultural Outlook/August 2000 Special Article Consolidation in Food Retailing: Prospects for Consumers & Grocery Suppliers n recent years, the U.S. food retailing industry has undergone unprecedented consolidation and structural change through Imergers, acquisitions, divestitures, internal growth, and new competitors. Since 1996, almost 3,500 supermarkets have been purchased, representing annual grocery store sales of more than $67 billion (including food and non-food sales by supermarkets, superettes, and convenience stores). Two of the largest food retailing combinations in history were announced in 1998: the merger of Albertson’s (the nation’s fourth-largest food retailer) with American Stores (the second-largest), and the acquisition of sixth-largest Fred Meyer by first-ranked Kroger Company. The recent consolidation wave has brought together food retail- ers operating within and across regions. While many food retail- ers operate in multiple regions, none is considered truly nation- wide in scope. Of the consolidations, the Albertson’s-American Stores merger, which resulted in common ownership of super- markets reaching coast to coast (but not all regions), comes clos- est to creating a nationwide food retailer.

  • 2010 Statewide Seabird and Shorebird Rooftop Nesting Survey in Florida FINAL REPORT
    2010 Statewide Seabird and Shorebird Rooftop Nesting Survey in Florida FINAL REPORT RICARDO ZAMBRANO and T. NATASHA WARRAICH Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission INTRODUCTION In Florida, seabirds and shorebirds typically nest on flat beaches, sandbars, and spoil islands, which have coarse sand or shells with little to no vegetation (Thompson et al. 1997). However, habitat loss due to coastal development, an increase in human disturbance, and increased predation by native and non-native species have likely contributed to beach nesting birds such as Least Terns (Sternula antillarum), Black Skimmers (Rynchops niger), Gull-billed Terns (Gelochelidon nilotica), Roseate Terns (Sterna dougallii), and American Oystercatchers (Haematopus palliatus) increasingly nesting on tar-and- gravel roofs (Thompson et al. 1997; Zambrano et al. 2000; Douglass et al. 2001; Zambrano and Smith 2003; Lott 2006; Gore et al. 2008). A tar-and-gravel roof (hereafter a gravel roof) consists of a layer of tar spread over a roof, and then covered with a layer of gravel (DeVries and Forys 2004). This nesting behavior was first reported for Least Terns in Miami Beach, Florida in the early 1950s (J.K. Howard in Fisk 1978) and has since been recorded in Maryland, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas (Jackson and Jackson 1985; Krogh and Schweitzer 1999; Butcher et al. 2007). In Florida, Least Terns increasingly have used roofs for nesting and now they outnumber ground nesting colonies. Zambrano et al. (1997) found 93% of Least Terns breeding in southeast Florida nested on roofs and Gore et al. (2007) found that 84% of all Least Tern nesting pairs in Florida were on roofs.
