"Several wetland classification schemes have been devised to facilitate waterfowl management in North America. These schemes were developed primarily from vegetational, not hydrological, characteristics of wetlands and so do not consider annual changes in slough responses to climatic variability. Here we provide a hydrological scheme that proves to be consistent with Millar's (1976) ecological classification scheme"--Abstract.

Presents a synthesis on the ecology, status, and conservation of marine and shoreline birds of the Queen Charlotte Islands, compiling papers on various disciplines to provide a review of what is currently known about the Islands' marine biology, with a particular emphasis on birds. The papers are presented in five sections: the physical and biological environment and prey organisms, including physical oceanography, zooplankton distribution and availability, and marine fishes as prey; nesting populations of marine birds and distribution of birds at sea; distribution and association of marine waterfowl, including papers on the distribution and ecology of Branta bernicla; seasonality and nesting of shorebirds; and introduced predators and toxic chemicals.
