Population structure and annual survival estimation of female Black Scoters using genetic tagging
Project Number: 46
Year Funded: 2005
Lead Institution(s): US Geological Survey
Project Lead: Sandra Talbot
Collaborator(s): Matthew Perry (USGS), Fred Broerman (USFWS),
Location: Alaska
Focal Species: Black Scoter (Melanitta americana)
Project Description: Identify individuals through genetic techniques and estimate annual female survival using a mark-recapture approach. Use the same markers to examine population delineation in these species.
