Habitat associations of marbled murrelets at multiple
spatial scales
Your paper should examine the habitat relationships of
marbled murrelets at multiple scales (including nest site, forest stand, and
landscape). You are welcome, but not required, to explore some of the
implications of these habitat relations on conservation of the species and/or
forest management.
Your paper should cite the following papers and a minimum
of 5 others:
